im 39 weeks pregnant. last week in the 'engaged' part of my notes it read 2/5. this week its 3/5. does/has anyone else had different? im hoping this is a good sign as baby is measuring big.
 
oh so now im confused haha! the two weeks before was 2/5 now its 3/5...so shes heading back up!? lol what is my baby doing..
 
the same one.very strange.i guess i could still be pregnant for a while longer ! :(
 
It can change within hours, I went from free to having a baby in my arms in 24 hours!


 
The fifths are actually interchangeable.

Some midwives say 2/5 is head partly engaged but still more "free", where others say there's just 2/5 remaining out of the pelvis.

Apparently.


Lozza, yours sounds right to me. Bub was 2/5 engaged, head partway in. Now at 3/5, the head is more in than out.

Either way, it unfortunately could still be a while.

On the plus side, things are happening :) xx
