Am 34 weeks with dd2, and the amount of uncomfortableness is beyond belief. Much worse than with dd1, who was head down. This baby is breech and I just feel like I'm being stretched beyond the pale in every direction, and to add insult to injury, lol, it feels as if the baby's head is between my knees too, even though its clearly somewhere about my ribs! Every time I stand up I feel like I need to go to the loo. Quite honestly feel like I'm going to give birth at amy moment!

Ds1 was a breech baby and I was so uncomfortable, more than with my others. I found being on all fours more comfortable, also this can help turn them, didn't work in Ds1's case though

I was very uncomfortable with a baby alternating between breech and transverse up to about 33/34 weeks, it was a relief when he/she went head down! It felt like everything was up much higher in my body and the weight wasnt too well distributed.
I found the baby went head down not long after an antenatal massage I had, probably not the actual massage though, more the leaning over the birth ball while the masseuse did it as I was on my knees leaning over for about an hour I think.
