How To Do Belly Mapping! (And Know Your Baby's Position)

[@euniframgd6899]

That is exactly my baby right now!!! I really wanted to find something like this. Thank you so much for sharing, it really helped🤍🤍

[@mamanatural]

I'm so happy it helped!

[@julieparrish4328]

Should probably cover the other head down positions. LOP, LOA, LOT, ROP, ROA, ROT... also very important. There's complete OA, and OP. An RO position is usually more difficult as well, due to how the uterus is shaped. It's completely symmetrical. The right side is steeper, making it harder for baby to tuck their chin as well. LO positions are a bit easier and rotate much better.

[@LCSDarkAngel2006]

I think my son kept switching between posterior and anterior position. Felt his feet in the ribs while sitting in a car, and other times, kicks were outwards. He was head down the entire time.

[@elleshah4777]

Lol sameeeeeeeeeeeeee.............

[@charcW8850]

Yes!! He’s spinning around constantly

[@wardaali6509]

OooI'm feeling movement in the same areas as you painted i guess my baby is also in posterior head down position 😊 thank you

[@moldyvoldy1231]

Anyone know how to do this with an anterior placenta 😅 i know my baby is head down but my doctor hasnt told me anything else about baby's position and i wont get anymore ultrasounds. Im 39 weeks 4 days

[@iLoveSkittles015]

such an interesting video! baby heartbeat is strongest on the lower left (she is head down) and I always feel my right side getting super hard so now that explains to be her legs! One time the ob did say he felt her butt really high near by ribs so I guess shes still moving around at times. Thank you! So informative

[@mamanatural]

You’re so welcome! So glad it was helpful-thanks for watching!

[@jasminemogal8000]

It's really helpful , god bless you and pray for me please iam in 6 month now

[@mamanatural]

Congratulations!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@mrj101486]

What is the optimal position? Anterior og posterior?

[@charcW8850]

Anterior

[@farak1397]

Hey hi, after watching your video I feel relaxed by knowing the position of the baby in this way 😍

[@mamanatural]

That’s so great! So glad it helped!

Thank you for this!!!!!!

My baby is transverse at 30 weeks... Kinda wish you spoke about that as well 😅

[@mamanatural]

Transverse is similar to breech in how it's treated--AND 30 weeks is pretty early to be concerned or trying to change baby's position at all! I would encourage you not to be concerned until later in the pregnancy--around 35-37 weeks is usually when babies move into the head down position for good!

[@mamaslittlemoments]

Interesting, Spinning babies suggests that transverse positioning should be addressed at 29-31 weeks. They want to see baby either breech or head down by then. Head down by 35ish weeks.

[@heather7862]

@@mamaslittlemoments my second baby went transverse on me at 35 ish weeks. Luckily he moved head down as I got closer to my due date. I knew instantly that he was transverse too, even before OB confirmed. I could feel it and it was honestly painful. My belly was distorted and funny looking. The only thing that relieved the discomfort was being on my hands and knees, rocking back and forth.

[@MrVenganza666]

I wish you could help how to identify baby's head or bum without having to go to the midwife 🙄

[@mamanatural]

Belly mapping CAN help with that!

[@elfo8elfo]

Yeah I agree, if you have to go on what the doctor or midwife said it kind of defeats the purpose, since the idea of this mapping process to figure out where the baby is without needing to go to the doctor... If you just went and they told you where it is then you don't need to do any mapping..

[@BrunetteGiant]

@@elfo8elfoI agree, this video's kind of useless lol.

[@mrsaguas524]

Yea I’m having a flip flopping baby and he was breech today.. so I kind of need to know how to find the head.. pointless video

[@geethach6520]

I feel kicks on right side, head was down What position is baby in?

[@mamanatural]

[@Okiegamer77]

I think this might be the position my baby is in right now. I’ve been feeling that hard spot right around where you said and I can’t tell if it’s her back or head. I really hope it’s the back, because I don’t want another cesarean due to a breech a baby. Last time I felt the hard spot at the very top middle of my belly. I’m almost 35 weeks now so I’m starting to get concerned about her position since I also have big babies. 9lbs and 8.14lbs. Will she even have enough room to turn if I wait too long to encourage flipping.

[@marielledepedro3502]

Can hiccups determine the position of your baby ?

[@mamanatural]

They can! Usually hiccups are felt near where the baby’s head and back are located.

[@bilaneey3653]

Omg my baby is in the same position. Everytime I try lay on my right side baby moves a lot because her back and butt is there and is hard compare to the other my left side btw I'm 38w n 6d. Thank you for your vidssss

Thank u so much i was wandering what my baby’s position is thank god it’s Interior

[@tifflovemyfamily2160]

Hi Mama Natural 😊 I'm 28wks 5days and my dr said my baby head is down and found heartbeat in same spot as you showed for you, but I mostly only notice movement in lower pelvic area 99 percent of the time..nothing higher barely..is that ok ...I definitely feel movement but just not in my upper belly like my 4 other kids..this pregnancy is totally different...any advice please respond...thanks 😊

You’re welcome!

[@taylorm7777]

I never feel my baby on the top. Yet, my baby is head down. I always feel him right above my pubic bone.

[@mamanatural]

It could be that your babe is laying sideways then--keep practicing that belly mapping!

[@tifflovemyfamily2160]

Me too....hope you and baby are doing great...it scares .e because all 4 of my other kids I felt higher

[@happylife3163]

I want to know my baby gender😭😭

[@mamanatural]

There’s several ways to find out for sure, pretty early in pregnancy too! Just chat with your midwife or OBGYN!

[@tifflovemyfamily2160]

So exciting 🙌

[@rhomasuba8676]

Where do you feel your baby hiccups?

[@mamanatural]

You can feel them anywhere your baby’s head or back are!

[@frankmueller7660]

Not quite sure what this is for. Why you want to guess where the baby is. You go to a check up every 3-4 weeks and the doctor can tell you exactly where the baby is. The ultrasound report has the exact position on it, more detailed that what she described

[@aswathybabu8077]

My baby is in breech and iam 36 weeks . I can feel his kicks downwards

[@mamanatural]

That must be such a strange feeling! Fingers crossed he decides to turn for you!!

[@legalfictionnaturalfact3969]

has baby turned yet?

[@peaceee93]

So can I not do baby mapping? She mentioned being like 8 months and I’m only 6

[@mamanatural]

It can be possible but more difficult at that stage when baby is smaller 😉

[@peaceee93]

@@mamanatural sometimes she doesn’t feel that small lol 😆

[@DianaCarreras0306]

How do you know if you have a baby in a transverse lie?

[@mamanatural]

If you feel the smooth long part of your babes back perpendicular to your waist, your babe is likely transverse!
