29wks and baby transverse.

[Tess]

Hi
Just had my 29wk check today and bubs is lying transverse - is this okay? Or should I be doing something to move it around.

My DD was head down from early second trimester so never worried with her.

Basically what I am asking is when does bub move head down and when is it too late?
Thanks.

DS was transverse for most of the pregnancy. He finally went head down bum up at around 33-34 weeks.

At 29 weeks I don't think it's anything to worry about. Not sure off the top of my head what things you can do to help bub move, but I'm sure someone else will shed some light!

I can't believe you are 29 weeks already gorgeous - how that has flown! I wouldn't worry at all about bub being transverse. There is an absolute stack of time for bubby to move. Will was breech until into the early 30's. Look after yourself darl.

Hi!

My bub was also transverse up until just 5 days ago - I asked my midwife how much time I had for him to go head down and she said if he wasn't down by 36 weeks they'd try to manipultae him to turn then, so try not to stress, you still have a bit more time! I was told sit with my legs apart and to lean my belly forward when I felt little one moving, this helps to get them into the optimal position apparently - Makes sense when you think about gravity etc! Good luck!!

Hiya
Thank you all so much - I am just a worry wart!!

Hi Liviam - can't believe how time has flown myself. I am taking things nice and easy thanks. Hope you are well.

Thanks again, I am sure I can find something else to worry about - hee hee.
