hi ladies,

i am 30 weeks pregnant and she has been head down for the past 4 weeks or so.

i read enough posts here to know that babies can turn around until the last minute... but thinking of the majority of the stories, whats the likelihood that she will be a good girl and stay this way until the delivery?

i know its a bit early to be thinking about it, but i cant help!

i imagine if baby is head down, more than likely will stay there

although stranger things have happened......!

both mine went head down at 28 weeks, felt them turn, and jam their feet firmly under my ribs, and stayed there..

i was hoping you would shower me with your knowledge lulu =). her position sounds promising then!

i have heard so many times about the stabbing pain of babies kicking their mom's ribs... today i felt it for the first time. luckily i was in bed, because if i was in public people would have stared at me with my ouch! it sounds sweet though that you felt them turning around.

it was sweet, sort of, if a little painful,

the head is the heaviest part , so on the whole, if they go head down, they tend to stay,.although as i said they can change..

try some optimal foetal positionng, and have a look at www.spinningbabies.com to help keep baby in a good position
