I got told DD was bottom down at 28 weeks but my Ob said there was still SO MUCH time for her to change positions so no big deal at all. He also told me percentages and it was very very likely she would turn around. Then at 32 weeks when he checked again and she was still bottom down he said very very likely she will turn and gave me more percentages that sounded favorable. My DD turned at 39 weeks! But apparently she is in the minority. I wouldn't waste any time worrying about it, you've still got ages to go
Pffft to that GP. Take it with a pinch of salt. There is plenty of time for bubs to get into the right possie hun.
While its not the way you want things, my DS ended up flipping in my 38th week of pregnancy - but he went from head down to bum down at the eleventh hour - as I say, not what we wanted but proof they move until quite late in the piece.
DD had a different end pointing up each weekly appointment until about 36 or 37 weeks, so there is definitely plenty of time for moving. I don't know if my ob checked the position at 28 weeks (if she did she didn't say what it was) because it's not really an issue at that stage. Ignore him!
DD was flipping til the day I was induced even lying horizontal. They had to check several times her head was down prior to breaking my waters (36 weeks due to PE symptoms). Plenty of time yet. It sounds like the GP is pretty inexperienced in this area. There is plenty of room yet!
Phew....thank ladies, just the reasurance i was after!....i think your right CL, i dont think he did many antinatals...maybe i should have set him straight!
