That was my story exactly! Well almost. So i got an u/s at 25 weeks to check on a few things that were missed at the regular one. Baby was head down, at like 28 weeks i started to feel a hard lump close to my ribs, "how cute i can feel her butt" is what i was saying. Every doctor visit my doctor would feel my stomach and do the doplar and based on that she believed my baby was head down and that hard lump was the butt. The only thing was she though that she may have been a little transverse and when she asked me where i felt my kick i said down low, but i figured babies are folded and stuff so i was thinking her feet were by her head. She ordered an U/S at 37 weeks to make sure. I figured it would all be ok so we were all shocked, even the doctor, that the baby was breech. We were also a little surprised to find out that she was an estimated 8 lbs already. Doc said a version was not a good idea with her size, so she scheduled a c-section a few weeks later, but my dd decided that was too long and she came just a few days later. I was really dissapointed that i wasn't going to get the birth i had thought i was, but it went really smoothly and overall my recovery was smooth. Yeah there is some pain but i'd say about 2 weeks afterwards i was moving around pretty well and 6 weeks later i was pretty much back to normal.
