When does ur baby turn head down?

Hello everyone,

Just went for checkup yesterday and at 30 weeks my little one still not head down yet.

Heard most babies already turn head down at 28 weeks, any mummies have any experience to share?

head down at 28 weeks? i dont think mine was. anyway head down doesnt mean engage and can turn anytime. my check up at 32wks show that head is down though.

im now 32weeks.
and my girl's head is down now.
engaged or not i not sure.
but from what i heard, when engage, you can "feel" the baby dropping to the below area.

my current feeling,
- can feel the legs is on top cos of the kicking.
- can feel something over my "triangle area" (below part), when i touch.
 
Thanks everyone, i am talking to my baby every night before i sleep now, hopefully my baby will turn down soon before space gets smaller. :)

hmm went for the check up ytd, baby has turned down, but not sure engagged yet. She only turned this week, because I had gone for another scan a week ago, and she has not turned then. So don't worry.

Don't worry dear, some only turn later on like 33- 34 weeks. So don't worry and think too much. You can always try talking to your baby and ask him/her to be good and turn down. =p.

Mine also now at 33weeks yet baby head hasn't turned down. She's lying side position and facing to my right womb.

Hopefully, her had will turn down in 3weeks time appointment. Otherwise, I got to go for C-sec. :( I am kinda scared.

I was worried about mine too. my baby was at the correct position initially but breech at abt 30th week. But she finally turned down at 36 weeks after doing much talking to her everyday. I also had been practising the bottom-in-the-air-head-down-on-the-pillow position. try it out for about 15 to 20 minutes a day.
