Unstable lie @ 31 weeks

Does anyone have experience of this?

At my 28 week mw appointment baby was head down. At 31 weeks she was transverse. Had a private scan today and she was transverse but had flipped 180. After some jiggling around she was breech and is now transverse again.

Sonographer described it as an unstable lie partly caused by high levels of fluid (possible GD but that needs to be confirmed).

I made the mistake of googling it and am now worried - talk of cord issues/prolapse.

Would welcome any experience of this. Sonographer wasn't concerned but did say that there was a chance she could continue to move around even beyond 36 weeks.

I had an unstable lie. She was mostly some form of transverse (except when I had midwife appointments!!). She then went head down and stayed there after my final growth scan at 38 weeks. I was freaking out about it too once we got past 36 weeks. But everything was fine in the end!

Yes my baby was unstable lie throughout and had c section booked ( had previously emergency one) and even at 39
Weeks they had bedside scanner and baby was moving from transverse to breech to head down within minutes. I opted to carry on with c section as couldn’t be sure baby wouldn’t keep turning and I had scared myself at this point so just went ahead.
