Baby's position

Is there a way to tell how the baby is sitting? Any clues? I have no idea how my baby is sitting and what I'm touching lol. I'll feel something small and hard that I figure is either an elbow or a foot. Then I feel something a little bigger, which I figure is a butt or head but then I feel kicking in the same area.

I guess it doesn't matter I'm just curious? I'll 31 weeks saturday if it matters.


ETA - Is it possible that the baby is still moving all over? Both of my last appointments they found the heartbeat under my belly button, once on the left and once on the right.

Baby's position

Our LO was breech EVERY time we had a sono. When my sister came home I had her check and feel around on my stomach, I felt like he turned. I felt more of like a headbutt down low and I started feeling his foot in my ribs. She felt around and I was right, he is in position but was told he can move again up until 36 weeks. I still feel his foot go into my ribs (I know its a foot because it just doesn't feel like a hand pushing) so I know he hasn't turned. If you are concerned ask at your next doctor appt. We got verification when I had my growth sono last week.

Re: Baby's position

Apparently it doesn't matter where they find the heartbeat... They have always found it in the same spot lower right quadrant. LO is breech, has been forever, I'm 37 weeks and it looks like he may never flip....

For me I know he's still breech because his head has not moved from the left side of my upper belly. he's laying diagonally and never moves from that position....

I'm always getting kicked on the right side under my ribs so I assume babys head is on the left and she hasn't moved into birthing position. Sono in two weeks to see
