Hi everyone,
Just a quick question: I'm 38 weeks exactly, pregnant with my first baby, and at today's antenatal appointment the GP said baby's head is definitely not engaged. The same was confirmed in all the recent antenatal appointments (apart from one, about a month ago, where I was told baby was slightly engaged)... so I'm unsure whether this plays any role in what will happen from now on, or if it's just nothing to worry about. I'm supposed to just see a community midwife at 40 weeks & no other appointments planned.
I also wonder whether it would be worth having a grown/wellbeing scan, just to check baby's size? I haven't had one since 30 weeks & since the baby's not engaged, would it make sense to have another scan, do you think, or not really worth it?
Anyway. Got to go bounce on my birthing ball again
Things are starting to feel really exiting...
