Worried about Brain Abnormalities and Breech Presentation at 35 Weeks

Hi. I am getting very concerned bc my baby has been in the same breech position for at least six weeks. Today I read that a breech position means that there is either a placental abnormality or a brain abnormality. I know that the placenta is in a normal place, so now I'm worried about brain abnormalities. I had a 20-week and 30-week ultrasound and all was found to be normal. (But it was at the 30-week that they first identified her as breech.) She moves all the time --as in kicking, shifting a bit, punching, etc. but she has been in the exact same position since the middle of June. I know this bc I get "punches" and "elbowings" just under my right rib, kicks are always internal, and have been able to feel and sometimes see the little dome of her head in the exact same spot under my left rib for this full six weeks. Are there any other reasons that she might be breech? She is a large baby, and I just thought that she hadn't had room to move. Now I am really concerned... I would appreciate a response from anyone. Also, has anyone had a baby stay breech for weeks and weeks and then move at the last minute? This sounds implausible to me... Thanks!
