Expecting ds3 in 7 weeks and baby is engaged already I'm feeling lots of pressure down below and what I can only describe as "fanny pain". Could he be planning an early exit?
I went 2 wks over with ds2 he didn't engage until term and I don't remember feeling all this pressure down below.

I was engaged for weeks in advance with both of mine so maybe not...

I was the same with dc2 and then with dc 3 both were born at 35weeks.
Ds1 engaged a few days before he was born at 39 weeks

Boobs feel like they're filling up too nipples swollen as if they need to leak. I wouldn't mind him coming early but I'd rather he waited at least another 2/3 weeks yet. I bet I'm still sat here pregnant in 9wks waiting to be induced knowing my luck.
