Hi everyone this is my first baby and his/her head is not engaged yet and I am 37 weeks pregnant. Do you think this means that the baby will arrive late?
Did anyone else expecting their first not see the baby's head engage until quite late on?
Also they say that your baby should be moving a lot less now as they'll have less room, but my baby is moving a lot - it's like she's doing somersaults in there or something. I don't know what that means apart from that she seems to have lots of space/ be having quite a good time in there.. I'm like, "that's very nice, but let's get you all set to pop out in 3 weeks".
I suppose like every expectant mum I am keen for the baby to arrive on time(ish) if possible..... I guess I am considered to be "full term" now but 3-5 weeks seems a loooong time away.
