Pregnancy

heavy feeling in my pelvis

I'm 36 weeks pregnant and over the last few days I've felt alot of pressure on my pelvis/bladder area, almost like suddenly theres a lot more weight pushing down, does this mean my babies becoming engaged or is it just the increased weight? I was walking for about half an hour today and by the end it was becoming really uncomfortable like I was going to wet myself! I think my baby has moved as a couple of weeks ago I couldn't eat more than a snack without feeling fit to burst and now I can eat a normal sized meal with ease. If this does mean she's engaged that doesn't necessarily mean the birth is immediately impending does it?! I'm a little concerned as my partners going away for work for two days tomorrow (he's a wedding photographer so he can't reschedule or not go!)

I think it sounds like baby is engaged. I'm 32 weeks and baby is engaged. My dd1 was engaged from 29 weeks and was late Angry. Don't worry it doesn't mean that it will happen straight away. Just your baby preparing to meet you.
