I am currently 24+2 and have been for a scan this afternoon (check-up after having severe pain a few weeks earlier).
As the scan started the sonographer said instantly that the head is down, and it was even obvious for me to see too.
She said everything looks perfectly normal and healthy and didnt mention anything else about the head being down at this stage.
My biggest concern is that DS was born at 29+5 and his head was down from around this stage. Were in Turkey on holiday until 9 September and dont see my own midwife until the day after.
I have had lower back ache and constant tightenings in my tummy for the past week now. Im also going to the toilet (for number 2) at least 2/3 times a day, although it isnt like diarrhoea (sp), but more solid- sorry TMI.
Is there anything I snould be worrying about at this stage? Doctor says all ok, but part of me not convinced. Surely 24 weeks is too early for head to be down?
