It may change. Normally after 36 weeks no baby will become transverse lie unless there is something grossly wrong with the birth passage.

Baby position may change. Repeat scan at 37 weeks. In patients with previous babies, baby's position changes till 38 weeks. In patients having 1 St pregnancy it usually does not change after 37 weeks
