When did your Baby drop ?
2weeks to go, yet we're riding as high as ever. I'd like to hear from some naturally-labouring mums that didn't drop until the very last minute or so -- Baby, I can't wait to meet you ! EDD: 10-Apr-2004 |

I went to my 39w appointment on the Wed afternoon, the OB told me I was about 2 or 3/5th engaged (which means that about half the head was still outside the pelvis) and the next morning my waters broke. I didn't feel any changes in fundal height or head movement from the day before so I'm guessing my baby engaged while I was in labour. Interestingly I could feel my third child engaging during labour, she was high when my waters broke and when my contractions started but at the contractions continued I could feel her getting closer and closer to my cervix as it dilated. That was kind of weird. -- Cheryl Mum to Shrimp (11 Mar 99), Thud (4 Oct 00) and Mischief (30 Jul 02) |

When did your Baby drop ?
I've got three kids, and all three times, baby didn't drop until
labour started i.e. with baby #2, I remember the midwife feeling my belly and being able to grab his head ABOVE my pubic bone in early labour - and he was in my arms 6 hours later. Mary G. |

I'd like to hear from some naturally-labouring mums that didn't drop until the very last minute or so I'm really not sure when I dropped...I am pretty sure it wasn't until the day I went into labor. My stomach always looked like I was carrying high (even when the doctor said critter was it -1 position), and I never really felt like the pressure from critter pushing up into my lungs let up until maybe the day of his birth. I wouldn't worry about not dropping early at all! -Michelle and Owen (3/17/04) |

Drop? I've been carrying this baby around practically on my thighs for a
couple weeks now! Baby seems especially fond of this low position during yoga class, which is not always helpful, either. Ocassionally plays at being engaged, but so far nothing permanent. -Karen, mom to Henry 3 3/4 and someone due in 4 weeks!- |

thanks all !
i'm not as worried now, and the more I think about my short torso, the more I figure "if you're moving down, you're moving out" -- Baby, I can't wait to meet you ! EDD: 10-Apr-2004 |
