    head down??

    so i know im only nearly 33 weeks and i shouldnt be worried but you know pregnant=worry about everything.
    Bub is still not head down, some days it feels like a foot is going to come out the kicks are right there kwim.
    DS and DD where already head down at this stage.
    Midwife said not to worry until 36 weeks pffft yeah right!!!
    so thats it ladies put my mind at ease with all your stories about how your bubs werent head down yet either TIA

    You know my stories, and both my lazy bummed girls never turned until the last minute (around 36 and 37 weeks) I know your cousin turned at 38 weeks, and a friend of mine's son turned at 38.5 weeks.
    You will be fine hun, lil Miss will turn, she just does not want blood to rush to her head before it has too....

    My little man is head down now... but he occassionally still flips over. I'd LOVE to know how, I wouldn't think there is alot of room in there now - I can tell when he's doing it because there is alot of effort being put into his little wriggles and I know once he has because instead of having hiccups in my groin I have them in my rib cage.

    In the words of my DH, just calm down She'll flip, I promise!

    3rd preg = no tummy muscles lol

    nah they tend to not stress as much with bub #3

    My little man has been going back and forth from transverse position (laying side ways) to head down, but has taken the head down position now hopefully for good!

    i know the pain your going through though not nice!

    fingers crossed bubs moves soon for you to a more comfy spot

    My boytwin turned from breech to cephalic at 37+6 - and there was a whole other person in there with him! Don't worry I am sure bub will turn, you have plenty of time.

    My DS#2 was transverse until 39+1 when he decided it was time to turn and he wasnt a little bubba either (9p 10 LOL) just try not to stress, If you are stressing try googling "spinning babies "

    I was about to say that if my friends twins can switch positions at every appointment & both be head down at 36 weeks to be born at 37+4, yours should be able to as well ALOT less room with twins!
