Breech or Head down

How can I tell if my baby is still breech? At 31 weeks she was completely breech and I’m unsure on how to tell if she’s flipped head down or not?

For me I can feel a hard bump for his back/bum on my left side. I feel hiccups in my crotch/bum area and hes constantly kicking and sweeping at my ribs in a head down position, if that helps identify where yours is at!

Though definitely ask your midwives at your appointments! Mine always tell and show me where his body is so I can know myself too

Even my midwife couldn’t tell for sure.. a scan is the only way to know 100%.

I think my baby is still breech as when he was head down I had awful PGP and now I don’t but I’m so breathless as if his head is squishing my lungs x

I'm not sure its matters this early is they are breech or not?

I've had a few scans over the last few weeks, and baby has been head down... bum down... and feet down... Still loads if room to move about and no one seems bothered what way round baby was

Im looking for a change in where I feel the kicks. My first, her feet were always in my ribs. This baby is breech and all movements are really low in my pelvis. Hasn’t moved yet, still playing football will my bladder.

My baby is still breech at 34+5 🙈 I can feel a solid round lump below my right rib which is baby’s head and hiccups are felt around my belly button and slightly lower. Hoping there is still time for baby to turn! This is my third and midwife did say they can move around much more with subsequent births because the uterus is more stretched from previous pregnancies x
