Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...hello doc,i am into 34th week of pregnancy...last Ultrasound done at 30th week and it showed baby s head down slightly leftwards....now i feel babys hiccups rightwards below my navel....are there any chances that baby is turning back to breech position...how can it be prevented
Hello dear, I understand your concern. In my opinion during the preterm period mostly the fetus will be in breech position. The fetus will be constantly moving and restricts to one position when nearing to term. There are no methods to prevent breech position. The position depends on the space inside the uterus and pelvis. The fetus gets adjusts to that. So we can't make or prevent any position. It is not usual to feel any hiccups and say position of fetus. The exact position is known by physical examination and ultrasound. So relax. Best regards... Consultant Gynecologist.
