Baby's position - when do I need to worry?

I know baby can turn any time, but am 30 weeks and think baby is currently transverse. What point in pregnancy do I need to start making an effort to get her into a head down position?

From 32 weeks but where I am booked in they don't concern themselves with baby's position until 36 weeks. U very loads of time. I can't do links on my phone but look up Spinning Babies...lots of good advice!

My was found to be breech at 36 week scan for low lying placenta. By 37 week scan she had turned. I did nothing out of the ordinary but walk a lot generally.

From my NCT group 3 of 7 babies were breech at 36 weeks all have turned (all at due dates now).

Good luck!

Mine have both been breech until well past this point. I think it was between 34 and 36 both of mine turned and they hadn't even started mentioning it as an issue.

Mine felt transverse but the scan at 36 weeks (also for low lying placenta) showed baby is head down! Even now after seeing many midwifes I still think he is but all say head down.. He must just get into some weird positions!
