    Default When does bub move head down?

    Does anyone know when babies turn down and stay that way?

    I thought it would happen fairly late (eg post 35 weeks?), but I've heard people in their mid 20 weeks being told their babies are breech?

    I'm 25 weeks and feel kicks all day long. Sometimes they are high, sometimes low, so my baby seems to be still moving positions quite a bit. So I was just curious at what stage do they get into a head-down position?

    My midwife told me today, that some babies (mainly in subsequent births) might not actually turn head down until your in labour.

    Don't worry about it until your Dr/Midwife tells you to!
