So I am roughly 13 weeks and I have had 1 scan to do the measurements however the baby was laying odd so today I went back for another try at the measurement, well let's just say that failed yet again the baby was laid funny. The doctors got my to giggle about jump up and down to try and move the baby, they have told me I have to come back again 🙄 for another try of getting the baby's measurements and because they couldn't get the measurements they couldn't do the screening for downs and stuff 😭. Any tips on getting the baby to cooperate and lay flat

Search for spinning babies on the internet and there are positions meant to encourage breech babies to turn later on in pregnancy, might be worth a try? Hope your little monkey starts to cooperate, but at least you've had a few more chances to see them, and that's always lovely xxx

I’ve been advised iced coke prior to the scan can do the trick x

Sweet things and icey drinks or ice can wake baby up and make them move around. Might be worth a try?xx
