my baby seems to be lying sideways in the womb which is transverse.. are there any complications to that and would that make my baby considered breach when it comes to labor..?

Went to get an ultrasound on my last 2 week visit. Baby is in the transverse position. Any ma'am baby was this position? I know it's common, but what did you do to get him/her heads down?
Raven
Same, it when ur baby is facing head up I think my ob called it breech position through so maybe it a type of breech position. Drink some more water, usually babies like this will turn the right way (head down) at 36 or 37 weeks on their own.

I wonder how can you tell if your baby is hungry or ready to eat inside your womb? Like do they really be hungry? 🤔 Or its just they eat whenever we eat .

How does a doctor know your baby is in the right position for birth since they don't do any ultrasounds after 20 weeks unless medically needed . I think all doctors should do one at 37 weeks to check for position
Mariah
They can tell by just feeling your Belly. Also could feel babies head by checking my cervix.

According to my growth scan ultrasound baby is 2903 grams AKA 6.4lbs at 33 weeks and in transverse position... 😭 do babies typically go into position by delivery date?
Ashley

Sofia
Why if you are only 32 weeks usually doctor worries when it's 36 week's or more. Babies position at 36-37 weeks. To stay. Before that there is still chance they move.

My baby is weighing more according to my doctor and weight and baby position is two different things. My doctor said until 36-37 weeks is when doctor's worry the baby stays in the position they are by 36-37 weeks before that even though the move baby in position baby can still move. I am 35 weeks going on 36 week's. But my bad news is my doctor wants me to have a C-section without option. Just cause my baby she thinks is big.But I'm stubborn and want a natural delivery. But even my baby on my last appointment he was breeched still not down. But he has been moving everywhere these passed almost two weeks. But for my I didn't want a C-section. But again for you it's too early to worry about your baby's position. Even though your baby is weighing 5 pounds now. Your baby still has room to move still a lot.

How can you tell the difference between a baby kick and the baby moving in the womb when 21 weeks pregnant
Emily
Kicks sometimes hurt. Felt like big jabs. Idk it's hard to explain but there's a difference and once you feel a kick and you had only been feeling movements previously, you will just know the difference. Sorrry haha I hope that's helpful
