What Is The Likelihood Of Fetus Turning Head Down At 36th Week Of Pregnancy?

Thanks Doctor,the scanning conducted showed that the fetus is having his/her head up instead of down.
the pregnancy is already 36 weeks,what is the likelyhood that she/he will turn back having his head down so that i can deliver by myself without goin through operations?
