A member asked:
Can a baby turn from cephalic to breech even after her head being engaged at 36wks? hope she doesnt turn because she was footling up until 32wks!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: If the head is truly engaged in the pelvis as determined by your doctor, there is very little chance the baby will turn. It is common for babies to be breech until the third trimester. You will be examined well before labor upon starting labor to confirm cephalic presentation.
