Growth sono yesterday (and a question about transverse baby)
So I had my 30 week growth sono yesterday and baby is measuring at approximately 3.5 lbs  . Everything is looking good thank goodness. With my 1st pregnancy, this 30 week appt ended up being my last since I went into labor a little over 2 weeks later  . Hoping and praying that is not the case this time 
Now for my question...The sono tech did tell me that the baby is in a transverse position (my 1st was already head down at this point). She said it is nothing to worry about at this point but I was just curious for anyone who had either a transverse or breech baby around this point, if and when they turned to a head down position? Also, did you do anything to help them turn or did they just do it on their own?
Thanks!

Re: Growth sono yesterday (and a question about transverse baby)
DS was transverse for a WHILE!!! I do believe though by 30 weeks he had gone to head down...
although the dr's and tech told me that 30 weeks would have still been OK...I think they said by 8 months they would hope to see him head down
oh and i didnt have to do anything to move him, he did on his own :)

DS was still breech at that point... He turned before 36 weeks, I can't remember exactly when though. We didn't have to do anything - he just did it on his own.

H. was transverse throughout my pregnancy w/ the boys. I had a c/s. He wouldn't turn, plus the dr had some concerns about the fluid around G., so she just did a c/s.

At 34 weeks this baby was transverse and has since gone head down which was cofirmed today.
My DS was breech at 36 weeks and flipped head down by 37 weeks.
I wouldn't worry about it yet.

My DC was transverse up until last week, right before 34 weeks.

My DS was breech the whole time and never turned. I ended up with a C/S. Hope yours turns soon.

All three of my children were transverse. #1 was still @ 37 weeks, so they had me go in for a version (When they press on your belly to turn the baby). Thank god they did a sono before and she was head down. She did end up going back sideways though and stayed that way. Both #2 and #3 were transverse my entire pregnancy and never turned. I had three c/s.

Re: Growth sono yesterday (and a question about transverse baby)
All my babies were transverse or head up at 30 weeks.
DC#1 never flipped, he was breech until he was born at 37+ weeks. Born via c/s because of it.
DC#2 was breech until about 34-35 weeks. I totally felt her flip over in my belly one night. It was the most surreal feeling. I thought she would come out of my belly button. I was able to have a VBAC.
DC#3 was also breech until about 33-34 weeks. I didn't feel the flip, but one day, everyone started commenting to me at work that I had dropped. Sure enough, my next visit showed the baby was head down. Looking more and more like another v-birth, unless I am overdue, in which case it will be a scheduled c/s.
