Does my position affect how baby lays inside me?
Patient's Query
I am a 23 year old female, 23weeks pregnant. I have quite a stupid question but im a first time mom & it's a need to know. There's many stories going around but i would like to know if my position affects how baby is laying in my womb. eg, if i am laying with my legs up (giving birth position) does that mean the baby is in the same position in my stomach?
Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri
The way you position your body can indeed affect how comfortable you are, yet it does not accurately reflect the baby's position in your womb. Babies move around and shift in the womb when they are looking for the most comfortable spots. At 23 weeks, they have enough space to assume various positions. If you have concerns about fetal positioning or notice something unusual, the best thing to do is to see a doctor. They have the know-how to come up with advice and they stand by you through all the tests. Just think, every pregnancy is different, and qualified health care is vital to the health of you and your baby.
