At what stage in pregnancy is a baby generally head down rather than breech?

Thanks kawazuki and rufalina.

I had absolutly no idea when the 'should' be head down from, I can remember my ob saying last time that they will start looking at spinning baby etc from 'x' weeks, I just cannot remember what week number he said , I knew it was still early days (this time I mean) I just really wanted an idea so I could try put at least one thing out of my head, for now .

My ds was born at 30 weeks and he was head down

Hi Daintree
My obs said just this wed gone that anytime from 34 wks bubs should turn to head down. This is my 1st though, not sure if it makes a difference.

My bub has been head down since 32 weeks.

I think every baby is different. I have no idea when they go head down but with my number 2 the head was not engaged at 9am when I went to hospital in labour. He was born at 2pm so anything is possible.

I went for a scan yesterday and was happy and suprised to see that baby was head down, bum up .

The ultrasound guy scanned for about 20 minutes and left the room for about 5 minutes, I just sat quietly and waited for him. So he comes back and tells me he wants to look at a couple more things, I lay down he looks at baby, she has her head up under my left rib and she is bum down! I didn't feel a thing, so obviously she has plenty of room to be an acrobat still .

Oh well at least I know there is plenty of room and time to settle into her chosen position .

Cheeky little girl!!! How funny to see. Wonder if she was trying to hide from the u/s probe...
