Disengaged?

I went to bed at 11.30 and didn't wake up til 4.30! I thought there was something wrong! I only got up one more time, after weeks of getting up every couple of hours to do little wees. I am 38.5 weeks and suspect the little bugger has disengaged because my bladder feels great! I'm not particularly worried, as it means I can work on the optimal foetal positioning, and I was 'high and mobile' at 39 weeks according to my Mums maternity notes after being engaged for weeks.
Any body else had this happen to them?

I guess not, then. Should I worry?

My baby's been 'bobbing up and down' as he still has some room, but for some reason engaged before 35 weeks! I'm getting on for 38 weeks now, and somedays he feels so low I think if I sneeze it'll start off labour. Other days he feels quite high up again! midwives told me not to worry at all as long as he's cephalic, as some women don't even engage until labour.
