Well I had issues at 28 weeks and had an ultrasound at 29-30 weeks. He was breech then. I came home that night and did a little hands and knees time, my toddler found this hilarious and had a blast, then I also did the butt raise thing. The butt raise thing is like where you put pillows under your butt while laying on your back so your hips are raised. I guess both ideas are to unlodge the baby's bottom and encourage them to turn. By that evening I put my little girl to bed and took a nice long bath. I felt he was in a transverse lay across my stomach. I massaged his head down and his butt up, not forcing him to move tho. After my bath I finished dishes and put laundry in the dryer and layed down to read. I felt him waking up again in there so I kinda felt how he was positioned and honestly couldn't find his head! At my next appt the midwife said shes positive he's head down. So maybe one or all of them worked and so far he hasn't turned back. Knock on wood, as I'm only 31 weeks, haha! Good luck and I hope your lo turns, I'm pretty nervous about a c section as well.
