Head is down in my pelvis, almost fully engaged, my midwife said today. Been steadily having mild cramping followed by a show for the last 3 days...my son is finally getting ready to arrive!! My midwife thinks he will be here by this time next week.
On another note...he has been moving constantly since around 4pm, its now 10.30pm and he is still kicking heaps and squirming...he hasnt done this before, usually goes crazy for an hour then is quiet for two hours then back at it. Is this normal this close to popping??
