Hi all,

Last week I was measured as 36cm (I was 33 weeks) and the obstetrician commented that I was quite big. Today I had a midwife appointment and now I measure 34cm. I queried this and she said its because the baby has dropped. She checked the positioning and his head is half-engaged.

Does this mean that he might come early?

...better get my hospital bag packed!

Sally :wave:
 
dont count on it coming early my friends baby was engaged for 7 weeks before she finally decided to come, the midwife always said it might be anyday now but she went a week over due.

Dont want you getting your hopes up only to be dashed. fingers crossed it could be different for you though. :hug:
 
is it your 1st baby hun? sometimes on 1st baby you can be engaged for weeks i was on my oldest i was fully engaged by 35 weeks and he was still 8 days late :D xxxxxxxx
