Hey!
Please oh please help me.
I am 35 weeks &5. Tonight my baby has moved from head down to what feels like horizontal, with the head (or bum?) way over to my far left side. Is this normal? The kicks almost feel closer to my back than my front.
First baby so I am slightly terrified if this is normal!

To my knowledge baby can keep moving up until 37 weeks which is when midwife will start to worry a little if they aren’t head down.
My DD didn’t move head down until 36+2 but even at 38 weeks she still wasn’t engaged. I had a planned CSection for other reasons at 38 weeks Smile x

Yes the little squirmers can keep moving so normal but not ideal. Mine has been head down for months then at 34 weeks turned breech. Now goes from head at top to what feels like vertical (which is bloody painful). As pilchy said they not concerned until 37 weeks when they will possibly look into trying to turn baby.
