By placing his or her hands at certain points on your lower abdomen, the doctor can try to makeout the general position of the babys head, back, and buttocks. Ultrasound may be used to confirm the diagnosis. Because your baby may keep moving around until the end of pregnancy, the diagnosis of a breech is sometimes made when labor begins.
