hi
i’ve been for a scan today to be told my baby boy is transverse and on the very large side🙃 i have been booked in for another scan to check position next week but im really worried about it as after seeing my consultant they said they’d admit me to hospital there and then for 2 weeks before doing a c/section at 38 weeks..
the c/section side of things doesn’t scare me too much but i’m absolutely petrified about staying in hospital for 2 weeks prior.. & i understand it’s to prevent the risk of a prolapsed cord but i’m the last person on earth who would ever choose a night away from home, im definitely a home bird..
has any ones babies gone into the head down position before there next scan?? baby boy has been head down for weeks up until today.
if any one has any advice i would be so grateful😢

update/ been to my midwife app and been told she thinks baby boy is back head down she got another midwife to feel and she said she puts good money on that he's back where he should be but he's not fully engaged..
any tips on how to encourage him to become engaged??
