    what does this mean?

    in the section in the blue maternal record book where they write the position of the baby the doctor has drawn a U shape. anyone know what that means?>

    I would assume it means bub is transverse. The U shape is the shape bub is sitting. So back is along the bottom with legs and arms upward, IYKWIM? It's how my GP writes it too.

    Yup that's what I was going to say... BUT don't stress, you still have plenty of time.

    cool, thanks for that. that makes sense. yeah i wont stress too much as of yet. i kinda had a suspicion the bub was like that just from how i am feeling the movements. thanks heaps.
