Baby is head down with back on my right side. All of my kiddos have been face up so I am thinking this one will be too. And I am wondering if positioning is why I haven't gone into active labor yet even though I am almost 6cm. So I have been doing figure 8s on the yoga ball, pelvic tilts, and I am currently on my hands and knees in my living room shaking my ass and hips all around. I'm sure it is a sight to see.

Awesome visual. I got a good giggle out of that!

this hippy dippy women at my work told me last week that the best position for getting labor going/pushing baby out is unique to every women's favorite sex position.  my favorite is on top so i guess that means i should be bouncing on a yoga ball or sitting in a squat position?

Alternate between the two? lol

All I know is he is head down, lowered a bit, and my cervix has softened. No dilation yet.  Have no clue as the position and can't tell whatsoever but the pelvic pressure is killing me since yesterday!

Head down. Still high up. Sigh.....

Well then.  Spinning Babies and hippy dippy people agree.  I should be on all fours a lot more.

My toddler would enjoy riding on my back while Mommy hangs out on her knees and elbows.

Kiddo is still head down, but we're starting to be slightly concerned that the head doesn't seem to even be thinking about engaging yet (I'm 38+2 today, FTM). MW has me tailor sitting as much as possible, and I've been looking into some spinning babies exercises to help kiddo line up with the exit. I've also been seeing a chiropractor trained in the Webster technique for a few weeks now for back/rib pain, so hopefully she's helping keep things aligned and moving in the right direction as well.

Peanut flipped back to breech with her buttocks happily settled on my cervix, head on the left, facing my right. I was so taken aback the US tech had to repeat herself. You aren't supposed to reposition after 34 weeks, my little monkey!

Head down and really low with booty usually on my right side and if daddy or siblings are near, seems to follow. Feet are almost always stretched to my left side giving me alien tummy. I'm gonna miss this.

He's still head down, but way up in my lungs/ribs. He's also still moving around between back on the left or right side of my uterus. I'm 36w5d today, so totally fine with the lack of engagement. Based on my maternity leave I'd like him to come right around my due date or even a week later.
