Baby Turning

My baby is turned feet first right now :( i am praying she turns head first before delivery.My youngest son is 9 and when i had him they said i could never have another child because my stomach muscles weren't strong enough to hold it but i have carried this baby fine i just hope she turns and my stomach muscles r tight enough now to hold her in place

Lisa- Just wanted to let you know my baby is also feet down right now. I go back for another ultrasound on December 7th to see if that changed. Still no changes in my placenta either. Good luck at your scan tomorrow. I hope your baby changed positions =)

lisa0114 - I found out yesterday my lil man is actually head up at the moment. He is literally using my bladder as a trampoline...lol. The doc said it is when the get bigger in the 30ish week zone that they like to see em head down so I guess we get to enjoy being the gymnastic mat for a while..LOL.

Thanks everyone!

spiritwolf31- Yeah she moves alot! i can tell when she is sleeping and when she is not now because when she is awake she moves constantly.

mmeriche-Thanks! I go for my next sonogram this Friday so we will see what position she is in now. It's a relief to know she still has time to turn thanx.

i was asking about my baby's position at my appointment yesterday.. she is kind of all over the place still! i was assured that at this point (i am 23w1d) they still have quite a bit of room and while some babies turn this early, they still have plenty of time to get into their final position. just during the five minutes of the u/s i had yesterday, she did a complete back flip and where her head was, there were her feet! i could feel some of her movements but not all, and would have not had a clue that she completely switched positions had i not seen it on the screen. i think as the babies get a little bigger, they will settle into a spot as there will be less room to do their acrobatics. i am sure your little one will make her way to head down in no time ;)

Lol...I dont know how much of a mover you have but if anything like mine....no worries for turning. I can check from time to time and he will be up and check again just hours later and he is all in the lower part of my belly. I say he isnt as active as my other boys but after saying that I think (if my memory serves) this one moves way more....   =))

Yeah i know what you mean my placenta is setting low also. I have 2 doctors one says don't worry it may go up by itself and the other says take it easy. So i am just waiting. I go for my next sonogram next Friday 11/12 and we will see what happens if she has turned but i dont think she has from her movements but i am not the doct. I love seeing my little princess it seems like she waves at me every time

Good luck I hope she turns too =) Still lots of time for her to. I have antoher ultrasound on Tuesday. Not only am I hoping that baby will be in a good position but also that my placenta has moved away from my cervix. I soooooo do not want a c-section. Fingers crossed xx
