baby turning head down

jordans_wife · January 2012

Does anyone have an answer by the average time in weeks baby's start to turn head down? I know most turn by 36 weeks but I'm wondering when the average time span is that they start flipping head down.

Mine is already head down and I'm 30 wks today.

28-32 weeks from what I've read

My baby has been head down for the past 3-4 weeks. Since he hasn't turned around since, I'm assuming he's down for good.

This baby has already turned, Juliana turned very late, like 32 weeks, and Cailin turned in my 28th week and clamped her cord shut at her bellybutton and that's how we lost her.

I did see 28 to 32 on one of the random google answers I got. Baby was head down at my 25 weeks us but today at 27 weeks he's breech. I know it's too soon to start worrying but yeah- I'm worrying anyway.

Since I have been feeling kicks still pretty low I asked at my appointment on Wednesday and MW said not to worry, because he's still like a little astronaut in there going wherever he pleases. She said we'll schedule an u/s about 34-36 weeks to check where he's at..

My last 2 u/s she was head down and low. Last u/s was last Saturday. She still feels like she is in the same spot.

I thought that same thing, but I believe that baby may have turned back to feet down.. Hope that doesn't happen to you though!

I felt hiccups super low in my crotch for a while, then yesterday I felt them up by my belly button and now today they were super low again. I can only assume he was head down and then flipped back breech and then flipped again. My OB said (like others have said) they still have plenty of room in there, and he is a wild wiggle worm and moves SO much. We'll start looking at options for flipping him if he's not head down around 34 weeks.

Mine just turned....he was breech/transverse a couple weeks ago. OB says once they are down they like to stay down and are happy there but for me at just shy of 27 weeks he may flip (do a 360)

Mine was head down today and I am 28 weeks and 4 days. But, I am pretty sure she has been head down for a while based on where her hiccups have been and her movements.

We checked her position at 28 weeks and she was breech. My OB told me no worries until 36 weeks. At my 30week appt he felt around and told me she is head down. I thought she had been turning the week before. I hope she stays head down!

at my US this week (I'm either 27 or 28 weeks) the baby had its head down.

LO is moving around alot, she still seems like she is all over the place! I'm not worried though - DS2 flipped breech at 36 weeks which was very painful, felt like I was having one very long contraction. Went in for a version at 37 weeks and he flipped himself back and stayed there.
