Hi all,

38+1 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby, had a midwife check today & I said I felt very different & had an uncomfortable night last night & think she's dropped, she checked & said "oh yes I can only feel her shoulders above so her head is right down there" and wrote in my notes she's 1/5 engaged.

I'm due to have a growth scan, consultant appointment & a sweep in a week but midwife said if you don't go into labour before the sweep will get you going I think & she will prob not see me again until baby is here.

1st baby came bang on due date with a 6 hour labour.

Is it likely that labour is near ?! 🤞🏼😅

It's exciting to hear that but they can pop back out of being engaged again. Hope it's not too far for you now x
