How do I change Bootstrap 3 column order on mobile layout?

by

I’m making a responsive layout with a top fixed navbar. Underneath I have two columns, one for a sidebar (3), and one for content (9). Which on desktop looks like this

navbar
[3][9]

When I resize to mobile the navbar is compressed and hidden, then the sidebar is stacked on top of the content, like this:

navbar
[3]
[9]

I would like the main content at the top, so I need to change the order on mobile to this:

navbar
[9]
[3]

I found this article which covers the same points, but the accepted answer has been edited to say that the solution no applies to the current version of Bootstrap.

How can I reorder these columns on mobile? Or alternatively, how can I get the sidbar list-group into my expanding navbar?

Here is my code:
