Hi all, when is baby supposed to turn (and stay) head down?
I’m 29w and her feet are always down or to the side, don’t think I’ve felt her kick at the top of my stomach yet…

1st babies can go head down quite early and stay down. I’m on my 3rd and I don’t usually feel kicks high up but he loves my pelvis and always has done so I’m not surprised. The midwives will check presentation at your appointments x

I'm nearly 32 weeks on my 4th and I'd say the last week or so I've noticed his kicks at the top of my stomach xx

My son was breech right up until I went into labour.
This baby goes from head down to laying sideways then head down again.

Same any x

At my last appointment baby was also breech . I have another appointment tomorrow so hoping she's decided to be head down .I feel quite a lot or kicks in my sides and ribs so fingers crossed I'm 32 weeks x

Amy, sorry bloody thumb trouble now!!! I'll see my little man on Wednesday so will find out then. He was head down two weeks ago. And I feel more hand and elbow movements at bottom in pelvis x

Yes feels like they are tiggling us lol xx

Do you find it tickles at times? Her little hands wriggle at the very bottom have tickled me a few times today. Xx

I had my 34 week appointment the other day and baby is head down but my midwife said they might still change position up until 37 weeks x

At my 29 weeks, baby was breech. But I had a 4D scan on my 30 weeks and she’s head down now. ☺️ Hopefully yours will turn head down! x

I was breech at 28 weeks but I’m now 32 weeks and baby has turned. I now get lots of kicks higher up where as before it was all lower down. Hopefully you’ll find this too ☺️
