Anyone else's bump dropping lots of aches too

[honeybear]

Hi ladies
32+3 and my bumps really dropped it aches everyday and I have loads of aches and pains down by my lady bits and the sides
What's the process? He's been heads down at both my last midwife appointments x

Just one of those pregnancy things i'm afraid! All very normal for baby to drop and engage especially with first babies. It isn't an indication that labour is close so don't worry - my baby has been head down since 28 weeks and engaged since 34 and we're still waiting (un)patiently The pains in the lady area can be really bad - there's lots of nicknames for them, lightening crotch is my personal favourite! They make me flinch, embarrassing if i'm out and about. It's just where baby's low and pressing on your nerves x

I'm 33+4 today I feel pressure down by my lady bits too so I'm thinking he maybe engaged, I have midwife on Tuesday so she will tell me. Also I feel massive, quite breathless & burping a lot
