3/5 palpable.. And head engaging question..

My sister just text me she is 3/5 palpable (Duno what that is lol)
And asked does the head need to be fully engaged to be in labour? She is 40+2.. thanks ladies!

I was 3/5th 2 days before I had charley and he was 8 days early so it really can happen out of nowhere x.

Is it her 1st baby? Normally 1st babies start to engage early where 2nd 3rd 4th etc babies can engage in labour itself....

No it's her second, her eldest was one end of June.. And she was 11days overdue with her, she's hoping to have him in august coz of the school yr gap.. Aug is one yr and sept would make it two yr school gap
