K was ALWAYS up in my ribcage on my right side! It was always her bum, so pushing back usually did little. Leaning backwards over a pillow or the yoga ball seemed to give me a little bit of relief. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-there-a-way-to-re-position-baby-cant-breathe#post-655024 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:21:58 +0000 Boheme 655024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cheert16: @zippylef: Sweet relief! I just did what you both suggested and literally SAW him flip over in my belly. It was so so weird! I've never seen that much movement on the outside. He's still got either his legs or his arms stretched wayyyyy out but at least they aren't in my ribs now :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-there-a-way-to-re-position-baby-cant-breathe#post-654992 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:15:10 +0000 loveisstrange 654992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would push back too. C loved to wedge her feet under my ribcage and I would sit down and press against them with my hands until she let up enough for me to breathe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-there-a-way-to-re-position-baby-cant-breathe#post-654986 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:14:00 +0000 cheert16 654986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I push back - when i feel a foot in my rib cage- i push at it till he moves it! Alot of the time switch positions- or going for a walk can help. I tend to go the to the furthest away bathroom just to get a walk in so maybe he will move a bit! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-there-a-way-to-re-position-baby-cant-breathe#post-654970 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 13:11:09 +0000 Boheme 654970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am almost 30 weeks, and today is the first day I'm massively uncomfortable. I don't know what Baby Grizz is doing in there, but I'm having trouble catching my breath and I literally feel either fingers or toes in my ribs... some kind of appendage is poking me and it hurts! I've read a little on the Spinning Babies website, but I was under the impression that's more for preparation for labor &amp; delivery.</p> <p>Is there anything I can do to encourage him to scootch around, or is this something I'll just have to get used to until June? I was fine early this morning! Now I can barely get any work done. </p>
