Did you notice/ feel when the baby dropped? About when did this happen for you, both in terms of weeks as well as in relation to your delivery date?
-
I felt like I could breathe easier. I think it was around 36-37 weeks (both times)
ETA: I had my first on 39w5d.
-
Me too. I felt like I could breathe better one day around 37 weeks. Delivered at 40+4.
-
Felt like I could breathe easier and baby wasn't so stuck in my ribs. Dropped at 37 weeks and had lo at 40+1
-
Ds1 never dropped. He wasn't engaged until I was about ready to push.
This one definitely hasn't yet. Feet are jammed up under my ribs and I'm miserable.
-
I could look in the mirror and see that she had dropped. I also stopped getting her foot jammed in my ribs. I was around 36-37 weeks.
-
DD dropped close to the beginning of my third trimester. I went past my EDD with her. With DS I didn't get far enough along to drop.
-
I noticed it at 38 weeks. I took weekly pictures and she was noticeably lower in my 38 week picture than she was in my 37 week picture. I delivered at 40+3.
-
I was induced at 37 weeks for pre-e and she had not dropped yet.
-
Not really, except it was a little easier to breathe
-
DS1 never dropped. I could physically see a big drop between 35-37 weeks with DS2 but I never felt differently.
-
I remember realizing that i could breathe easier, but that I was waddling more. I compared photos and could see a definite difference. Then at my next appointment the midwife confirmed that she was engaged. I think that was about a week or so before she was born.
-
I wear ultra low rise jeans, so I never wore maternity pants. At 36+3 they fit perfectly. At 36+4 the button was rubbing against my belly so hard I thought I was going to bleed!
Dropping was VERY noticeable for me. -
I def saw myself being lower in photos but I don't remember a specific moment or period of time where I was like, "that's when K dropped"...
-
Not really. I didn't notice.
-
No, at my 39 week appointment the midwife said that the baby had dropped a bit and after she mentioned it I thought I noticed.
-
Really never dropped and I went into labor at 40w2d.
-
felt like I could finally breath again. and eat more than three bites at any given time.
but then again the other side of it was i had to pee every 3 seconds.
