Subject : 3/5!!

went for a 34 wk check up this week and i was surprised when the midwife told me its head is 3/5 free meaning 2/5 are in, when 3/5 are in they class it as engaged!!
i was sooooo surprised as i dint think this happened yet and its got me so excited now!!

is any one else the same??

i wonder if it will be arriving early or is this just the norm. ? m/w said at 36 weeks they expect first time mums to be engaged and im nearly there at 34!!

gosh im excited!!!!!


hope u all ok

i think with your first that once the heads in place it stays there, however with subsequent pregnancies i think its all a bit looser down there so baby can pop in and out of position!
lovely! lol! x x
