Or could it still be weeks away yet ? I am 36 weeks. Saw the MW this morning and she told me that it was deeply engaged now so just wondered how long it could be now and if it's likely that it could still go full term.
Thanks everyone.
I posted this in the 'childbirth' section earlier but have copied it over as I am not sure which one to put it in.
I have googled it and the general thing seems to be that with first babies the head can engage very early before the birth but with second babies it tends to engage at the start of labour so am just wondering whether that means labour is imminent.
Thanks again

2nd DC. Head 'fixed and deeply engaged'. Does this mean labour is imminent ?
