Head down early & labour

Hey guys,

Very aware these 2 things probably aren't really linked but I'm just curious.

My baby has been head down since 20 weeks (I have GD so have regular growth scans) and because of that my family keep saying they think I won't last til my due date.

So I'm curious, anyone who had a head down baby from early into pregnancy, when did you go into labour?

Thanks guys!

All ours have been head down at 20wk except twin 2 as she was transverse while twin 1 was head down. 1st they induced due to high bp, arrived 39+6. 2nd arrived 40+5. 3rd arrived 40+2. Twins they brought at 38wk as they don't like them going further but twin 1 turned breech between 32 & 36wk so elcs. 30+3wk atm and due a growth scan soon due to previous large babies, doubt she'll want to come early though people keep saying that to me which is annoying.

That's interesting to see it didn't seem to impact your pregnancy length too much! All of my family seem convinced he'll come about 37/38 weeks but I keep trying to explain to them just cause he's head down doesn't mean he'll be ready hahah!
