When did your baby drop?

[Lacey's Mummy]

When did everyone's babies "drop"?

My rib's have been so painful today and the only relief i get is to lean over my birthing ball on my knees!

I keep thinking once little man's dropped it might take the pressure off my ribs! I really hope i haven't got this to the end now

I think mine dropped properly at 38 weeks. I now have a definite belly overhang like blokes do when they've had one too many kebabs and didn't really have one before.

I can't remember with the boys but I deffo haven't with this one yet as I can still feel feet and bum by my ribs and my bump is still quite high. I got the midwife on Friday so I'll ask then.

About 35 weeks-my bump was high at my 34 week appointment and had dropped by my 36 week consultant appointment x

Everyone said at 33 weeks I'd dropped, and then when I went to midwife appt. at 33+6 she confirmed I had.

Oh my god the rib pain I am experiencing at the moment. I need some droppage to happen! But it doesn't look like it's going to be a for a little while looking at you lot.

I actually feel as if I have been playing rugby and my ribs have taken a complete hammering. I feel so bruised!

i aint really sure as i think over the past couple of days my bump has just dropped very late

35 weeks, I thought I could tell as the top of my bump became squidgy (rather than a solid bum) mw confirmed at my 36 wk appointment. I went straight from not engaged to full engaged though, so maybe it's not quite as obvious if you gradually drop?
