36 weeks and I don't think hes head down yet!?

Question

Today is my 36 week scan to see if baby has turned properly. I don't feel like he is though judging by how he feels in my belly. When did your baby turn the right way approximately? I'm nervous and scared he won't do it in time and then what if I go into labor!? I'm due March 16 but I feel so much pressure down there and I'm sure it will be soon.

Answer

Google spinning babies exercises or look on YouTube. There are inversion exercises you can do to help give baby more space. Think about it like using gravity to help baby reverse a bit and try to get into position again. Swimming also might help (but I’ve never seen research on that only anecdotal)
There are also chiropractors that specialize in positioning. I think it’s called the Webster technique. 
It’s a bummer doctors wait so long to tell moms the position of baby. Knowing around 32 weeks gives much more time to do the exercises that give baby space to move. But at 36 weeks you still have time to try and if it doesn’t work you can start getting mentally prepared for c-section. 
I think most docs don’t mention it earlier because they are so comfortable with the alternative (c-section).

Answer

I’m in the same boat, baby is completely breech, my due date was the 13-17 but I know he’s coming early. Had a ultrasound yesterday to see if he was still breech, he was. Try not to worry, the ultrasound tech said “there could be worse things than a c section” and she right. 
Knowing he is breech will be easy if he comes early to let hospital know so they can check him right away to see and get things set earlier 
If he doesn’t come early they can try to turn him, and there’s apparently exercises that we can try to turn him naturally.
