38 +4 head fully engaged will baby be early????

[woodhj]

38 +4 and midwife told me head fully down. Really excited now any body been fully engaged and still gone over or been induced?

I was told the baby was 3/5 or 4/5 engaged, for weeks, was even told - this baby is coming soon - I went over and had to be induced!

Engagement does not predict impending labour!

Anyway, at this point you would not be early anyway - normal pregnancy is anything from 38 to 42 weeks.

You'll just have to wait and see !

Good luck

Oh no im so excited now that it could be any day. DD1 was born on due date which i was told there is only 5% of babies born on due date. I am feeling slight movement in groin and pelvis opening also a bit of pain like something is about to pop.

Never had any indication with dd thought i would go over but waters broke and it was first thing i knew of baby being on way

38 today, LO 3 and apart from pain abit one day and then nothing the next, i have so much movement in my groin area im in the loo all the time scared i will pee myself such a chore getting up!

Had MW appt but snow prevented me goin so no one to confirm how engaged i am??????

Hopefully not long now, just dont want anymore snow so i can get to hospital! safely!

Good luck and hopefully LO will come soon!

I was fully engaged very early on and went to 42+5!

42+5 Oh please dont! that sems so far away. Although i am booke in for sweep on 31st January so that will hopefully work if babynot here by then.
