breech or not

So I am 38 Weeks and my doctor has not said one word about me being breech or not. I am seeing all these comments about scans and moms who know where there baby was positioned at 32, 34, 36 Weeks. I keep forgetting to ask my doctor, I am going back on Thursday. In the meantime do you think I should assume the baby is head down because I am so far along and he hadn't said anything?

    You might be able to get a good idea yourself from looking at spinning babies.com. Otherwise I would say don't stress. Your OB should be on top of that. Of course I would ask at the next appointment.

    Yeah I would just assume baby is head down and ask at your next appointment.  I would imagine that they would be talking to you about c-section by now if baby weren't in the correct position.

    I heard if you feel baby's hiccups low in your belly he's probably head down. Sure, he feels them in his diaphragm not his head, but I felt my baby's down low and it turned out he was head down, so....

    Before I had DD, my midwife never mentioned her being breech or not so I assumed she wasn't breech. She wasn't, but she was posterior.

    They should be able to feel position by feeling your stomach.  I'm surprised they haven't said something one way or the other, but I guess I would assume no news is good news.  I know baby is head down, but I even ask every time whether she's facing my back or not and they're able to tell me (although I usually think I know this too, it's more of a confirmation than anything).

    my baby is frank breech and i feel her hiccups down low in the bottom of my belly bc that's where her chest back is. And i can feel around my belly and always know where her head is bc it's the hardest part of her body. I'm labeled "high risk" so I get regular ultrasounds throughout my pregnancy and she has been breech at every one i've had since my anatomy scan. I get them weekly now to measure growth and fluid levels.

    My baby is footling breech and she kicks me hard in my cervix and bladder all the time so I know she hasn't flipped. I started measuring bigger than normal all of a sudden so my doctor sent me for an u/s which confirmed she was breech. We are scheduled for a c section on the 10th
