Baby sideways?

Does anyone feel that their belly is not round/equally shaped? I gave this bulge on one side and tend to think that my baby is transverse… I have had this bulge ever since the belly started growing Kicks are always to the right and the bulge is on the left side (this where her head is i think). 26 w 4 d. Have my ultrasound next week. Is it possible for her to turn or should i be asking my obgyn to turn her ? The way i see this - the sooner we do it the easier and the better

My doctor just told me that they don't worry about position until 32 weeks. Plenty of time for baby to flip around.

Could also be diastasis recti. Very common during pregnancy and can heal on its own after delivery depending on the severity

Hi! There is lots of room for baby to turn and they do! Baby spinning is with looking up for techniques to get baby to flip to a better position. I had a transverse breech baby at this point with my first and he stayed that way. They can turn baby if that's the case, it's called an ECV. But they won't do that till around 37 weeks. The reason for this is that there is a chance it will start labor and they don't want to do that early. We did this at 37 weeks with my boy because he stayed transverse breech despite everything. The ECV worked for us but doesn't always work. Good luck!

My baby is frank and that’s how I am I have a bulge on my right and feeling kicks and movement on the left and bottem

The bulge could be baby’s butt!!! My baby has been head down for ever and I feel kicks and movements on both sides. Baby’s still have plenty of time to turn but some things that can help are forward leaning inversions (google this) and acupuncture and moxa after 32 weeks.

Mine has been transverse at every ultrasound and appointment and I feel really hard kicks on my right side more towards the middle of my stomach. I’ve also noticed a bulge near the right side of my belly button, I think that’s his little butt lol. OB said not to worry though and that he’ll move head down the farther in pregnancy we get as he runs out of room.

Mine I think is breech right now I can feel her head on one side her feet on the other and my belly is slightly pointed to the left

@Cece i think we are the same way, except mine is on the right vs left
