weekly appt

Midwife reckons baby has engaged/ dropped... although I don't noticeably feel any less breathless, like your suppose to.  She had a hard time feeling for the head and therefore seems to think it's so low down now she can't really get to it.  BP was perfect and urine, so, so far so good.  I can barely walk now with the pain in my undercarriage, not a pressure just more like I have arthritis in my pelvic area and I keep a getting a pressure in my bum like I want to push.  I'm hoping/praying this baby will come early and I will not need to be induced.  Well that's all my news.  Hope everyone is keeping well things are also moving!!

thanks girls for the support, I just hope we all start moving soon because I'm getting down now from the amount of discomfort I'm in.  I just need a sign that things are moving, so I'm  uping all the chores I'm doing and walking more, so we'll see!!

Glad you had a great appointment.  I hope you can breeze through delivery and not have to be induced.  If baby has dropped that much, sounds like you are good to go.  I had some pregnancy pictures done this past weekend and looking back at them, I can tell I have dropped, but like you, I don't feel less "airless".  My problem though is Reece is long and his legs are still up high, so he is keeping pressure up there.
