Hi Lolly,

I was told about 1 week and a half ago that my little girl was lying transverse. She had been breech at the appointment before this. Like yourself, I was worried that I'd need a section and didn't want one if it could be avoided.

Anyways, yesterday I went for my midwife appointment and baby is now head-down!!

I am 36 weeks tomorrow and baby is measuring big for my dates. So, it just goes to show that even at 35 weeks (AND with a large baby if measurements are correct

) they CAN still turn into the head-down position :thumpup: Hope this reassures you a bit?

Fingers crossed your baby will turn for you soon! I know how anxious you must be waiting for it to happen (because I was the same) but there is still time so try not to worry yourself!

(p.s. I see you're living in Dublin... SNAP! Are you attending the Coombe? xx)
