Just back from my midwife appointment and thankfully the baby is head down now :D And she's 4/5 palpable? Can someone tell me what this means?

I also found out that I'm now anaemic (sp) so had to have even more blood taken :(

I was quite disappointed with the appointment though :( Dunno what i expected though...i just get dead excited beforehand and imagine they are going to say "Oh my gosh....your in labour already!!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

But no such luck :(

:D:D:D
 
That means that the midwife can feel 4/5th of the babys head and that 1/5th is in your pelvis. When you are 1/5 then you are fully engaged and ready.
 
Aww I used to look forward to all mine and get dead excited then nothing really happens & ur dead disappointed, not sure exactly what i expected to happen tho!! haha :hug: :hug: :hug:
