Yes she's dropped :) I go in to check in a few hours so I'm keeping my fingers crossed but not getting my hopes up. She's been head down and ready to go for the longest. Two weeks ago she weighed 5 lbs 6 ounces. I'm hoping she will be a 6-7 lbs baby nothing more lol I'm such a small person.... Lol I am so scared yet ready ro have her already !! Hope everyone goes through safe and happy delivery :) I have 20 days left

I'm 38 weeks but my last appointment my doctor said I was 2cm. So maybe its just different for everyone! I'm sure it will happen for you though!
