Has my breech baby turned?

Hi I'm 31 wks and at my last MW appt (28 wks) she told me my baby was lying breech. I've always felt movements on either side of my bump (not much in front but think placenta is anterior). I've tried doing the breech tilt from the Spinning Babies website and spent a longer period of time yesterday just resting on my forearms and knees while baby was being very active.

I've just started feeling movement up under my ribs which is unusual - could this be a sign that she/he's finally turned? This is my first and I have no idea what I'm looking for!

Any advice much appreciated

Penny I am 38 wks with twins and twin 2 seems to move every week,despite docs saying by 30 wks there wont be enough room!so every scan has shown it either head down then next week head up, same thing when i see the midwife, the only way i can describe the feeling is like spinning in my stomach or like being on a rollercoaster where your stomach turns.I would guess with a singleton baby the movement could be less obvious to you but you have got plenty of time for your acrobat to move around

Mine was breech at 32 week appt, last weekend at 34 weeks I had a whole day of seasick-style nausea and everyone said 'oooh that'll be the baby turning'..however I think the little bugger has turned back, cos I still feel a big orb-like shape (the head?)in my ribs and kicks down the bottom - sorry can't be of much help, I'm a clueless first-timer too!
