Solely because I am intrigued as to if my baby could have moved yet (I'm doubtful) what where your baby's movements like if they were still breech in 3rd trimester? How did you feel? Where did you feel the kicks etc?

I'm 32 weeks ish and prior to 30 weeks all movement was in my pelvis and I had a horrible hard lump under my ribs with really uncomfortable indigestion etc. But I'm still not convinced baby has fully moved as the movement is now my whole bump, blows to my ribs and softer jabs at belly button height (and only on one side) my digestive issues are now come and go as well so some days I think I have less pressure there and then it reverts back!

My baby was breech (that we knew of) from a private scan we had at 29 weeks. From movements it appeared they remained breech, I booked for acupuncture to encourage them to turn at around 35 weeks and they were head down by the 36 week scan which was a relief! Thoroughly recommend the acupuncture route, much less invasive than a manual turn and has better success rates. Spinning babies website gives you some good positions to encourage them to move too!

I'm doing spinning babies but just wondering how people felt their movements changed etc

I had a really OTT movement where it felt like the baby was trying to break out of my abdomen, felt all the movements by my ribs since. My rib pain subsided too (had suffered with it since around 14 weeks) although it’s back now but I’m 40 weeks so not surprising. Fingers crossed they turn and stay turned for you

Tickles of little feet in my pelvis for months then a huge hard lump to the left under my rib cage. I thought it was a bum. It was not. It was a head.

The huge hard lump would push outwards. Was visibly round and looked like a melon in a balloon.

Undiagnosed until I was 10cm dilated.
would not recommend.

@Brandnewskytohangyourstarsupon did you experience any side kicks?

@Btowngirl thank you. Some days I'm convinced they have spun and then others I am the polar opposite. They seem to be spinning like a washing machine in there and there is no pattern or favourite place to their kicks.
