Transverse, oblique, breech. experiences pls!
in Baby
Hi
im currently 36+2 with baby number 2. my son was born naturally 18 months ago. but this baby keeps getting into strange positions. he was transverse for a couple of weeks from about 31 weeks, then he has been oblique with his head down but at an angle and is now oblique with his head near my belly button we think. mw isnt sure about these positions but they are what she thinks. im seeing her once a week to monitor my iron levels and to check his position but each week he seems to be in a different place, but not necessarily head down. is this normal? im seeing my consultant next week when i will be 37 weeks to check babys position again but not sure whats going to happen. she said i will need a section if he is transverse ( like he was when i saw her at 32 weeks) but didnt mention anything about if he is in another position. has anyone experienced this? and if so what was the outcome? i know he still has time to get head down and engaged but i dont feel that he has been head down at all. i dont feel movments at the top of my bump, mainly at the sides and low down. baby is still very active! thanks

I don't have any experience personally as both mine have stayed head down from about 20w! But i have heard That 2nd babies often float around changing positions until active labour!
Hope baby behaves.

xximpatientxx was your baby oblique head down or olbique breech? so did you have the section around 38weeks? how did you find the whole experience?
