Hi,
Thanks for choosing healthcaremagic.
The ultrasound report is perfectly normal. There is nothing to worry about.
As you are in 5th month of pregnancy the baby keeps moving within the uterus, so it is mentioned as unstable lie. It is normal for the baby to keep moving in 5th month. After 8th month the baby's position will be fixed and the lie will become stable and the presentation of the baby will be determined whether it is head first or buttocks first.
Please don't worry and be reassured that the ultrasound is completely normal.
Hope it sorts your problem and wishing you a speedy recovery.
Regards,
Dr. Pankaj Nagori
