Where do you feel kicks?

Im 35 weeks and my baby currently spins around quite a lot, and I think she's changed position again. A week ago she was breech, and I could feel a round lump under my ribs that was her head... the lump has moved and now I'm getting kicks there instead, whereas before I seemed to get kicks low down. No real point to this except trying to convince myself she's head down! Any one able to help me figure it out? I have an anterior placenta and polyhydramnios if that makes any difference!

I'm 40+5 and I've been told by a few different midwives that my baby is back to back/facing the side. I definitely feel her on the sides and the front. I've got an anterior placenta but I still feel her movements strongly in those areas. Really hoping she'll get into the right position before giving birth

Until a couple of weeks ago, I felt the vast majority on my left side and sometimes would feel him/her roll round to the other side. When I was 31 + they weeks moved into a breech position (found this out when I went to the hospital for reduced movements as it was very different) with their head up, bottom down and legs either side of the head. I get any movement that happens low down now so I'm not sure if the legs are coming up and down but definitely not feeling anything high up except a hard head shaped lump near my ribs! 33+2 weeks now, I'm just hoping they choose to practise some spinning soon but they don't seem keen yet!!
