Had an ultrasound yesterday...the baby is breech. I'm 19 weeks. I've heard that the baby "turns" before it's time for it to be born. Is this true? Geez, I need to start writing these questions down for my doctor! :) Thanks!

My son was head down the doctor even felt his head, but at some point during a contraction he turned and nobody ever knew it. I ended having to have a c-section and that's when we knew he had turned.

Being breech at this point is not a concern just yet. My son was doing flip flops right when I was having an ultrasound done at the same time. The baby is still small and there is still plenty of room to move around.
My son was actually doing flip flops up until 39 weeks. So don't be concerned just yet. Good luck!

Your baby won't get into the birthing position until very late in the pregnancy. My daughter's been head down for several weeks, I'm currently 36 weeks. If your baby doesn't change positions before 35-36 weeks, there's a technique that your doctor/midwife will likely recommend to help position the baby for birth.

My baby was breech until 32 weeks. I was freaking out, thinking I had to have a C-section and that was my biggest fear... I didn't wanna be cut open. Gross. She flipped around into position and she will be here anyday! Don't worry... most babies DO turn before it's time. Definitely don't stress out about it. Good luck :)

Yes! My daughter was in the breech position and turned right around at around 24 weeks I believe. No worries! Congrats and best wishes!

My baby was breech right up to the end and the doctor was going to turn her but when i went for the appointment three days later she had turned herself. I still had C-section though cause she weighed ten pounds.

It's totally normal. Most babies don't turn head down for a few more weeks. You are very early and your baby has plenty of time to turn. I've seen babies turn at 35 weeks. Although the norm is somewhere in the 20's.
Don't worry. This is all fine.

If the baby is breech, you're most likely going to have a cesarean. The baby will only turn if it's in a normal position.

way too early to be annoying approximately that. confident, the toddler has a fabulous style of room to flow around good now, and maximum toddlers do no longer settle right into a head-down place till properly into the third trimester (someplace between 30 and 35 weeks). My toddler grew to become into transverse for an extremely long term, and did no longer turn till around then. do no longer issue, purely take exhilaration on your being pregnant! terrific of success and congrats!
