Fetal position?

Can you ladies tell what general position baby is in by feeling your bump? I’m 32 weeks and I can tell he shifted quite a bit today. They wouldn’t let me get any more scans after my 20 wk since I’m measuring on target 😢 and I’m growing curious about baby’s position

You can ask your doctor at your next appointment and they can tell by feel

I could tell because his feet would be in my ribs under my boobs and his big ol head would clearly be smashing my bladder

I’ve noticed that the side my baby kicks on most is the left but I can hear her heartbeat only on the right side so her back is definitely on my right side but I can’t tell if she’s butt up or down😂

I could tell with how she was kicking, along with the pressure down there. But your doctor can tell by pressing as well. My doctor didn’t give me a full ultrasound, but she had a handheld one, that she used for 10 seconds to see where the baby’s head was. See if they have a handheld ultrasound machine and ask to double check on where the baby is positioned. Slim chance they will tell you that they will check for that later when you are 35 or 36 weeks though.

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Little girl turning herself sideways in next to me

My little girl tonight, has spun herself so she is lying sideways in her next to me, making me panic!

Is this normal at 4.5 months, do I just lie her back normally/vertically?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!
