Kicks low and high breech? Head down?

Hi I'm 25 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby and this past week I've been feeling kicks up high but also a lot of movement down low and near my hips. I don't remember having so much movement down low with my first so I'm just worried baby is breech. And I keep telling myself it's still early to worry about that but I can't help myself 🙄 baby was lying transverse at 20 week scan same as my first.

I just can't tell what is kicks or punches

I started getting this and was worried baby had moved as they were head down!I was hardly feeling anything further up and it was all low down all of a sudden.
Apparently my baby has just got good at punching haha because they're still head down

At 25 weeks though, they can change position often. You've got another 11 weeks before it's a concern

Could be hands around the head. If the strong kicks are up high baby is likely head down.
The lower of our twins was head down from 20wk then after my 32wk scan I felt my bump become much heavier all of a sudden. At my 36wk scan she'd turned breech to be head to head with her sister so I ended up with a cesarean.

I’m currently 29 weeks and I feel the majority of my movement lower down (some higher up) and baby is definitely head down. I’ve also got an anterior placenta so I don’t know if that makes any difference. I think it’s just the arms having a good wave around!

I think I have a anterior placenta I can't remember what the doc said at my scan. I think with my first it was different. The movements were all up near my ribs about a week ago now I feel the most down low I'm just getting worked up because I really want a natural birth this time as I ended up with Emcs last time.
