Just had mw appoitment and she said baby was 4/5 engaged. Now i thought this meant that she can feel 4/5ths of baby's head outside the pelvis so only just engaging but she seemed to mean it as it was quite far down and she said' Could be anytime soon'.
Just had a nose on google and found that is she wrote 1/5 parable 4/5ths engaged means she can feel 1/5 outside.
Confused anyone enlighten me

Not really sure but I was 3/5 engaged at 37+2 and I gave birth a few days later, so I would say your very close to delivery!
Good luck!

I'm 2/5th engaged and midwife said this meant she could only feel 2/5ths of the head still free out ...so 3/5ths of the babies head has dropped.
