baby dropping?

Question

how do u kno the baby has fully dropped...im 31 weeks and just noticed it yesterday my doctor sed the baby is in possition....is there such a thing as being not fully dropped? or is it a one shot deal? id also love to kno how far along u gurls were when ur babys dropped and how long after that u had them. thanks

Answer 1

I dropped at about 30 wks..u'll know if baby's fully dropped when you can finally breathe normal.. and when ur belly looks a lil more elongated....Lol needless to say i had him right at 39 wks so not too bad..hang in there.

Answer 2

Why do you assert -two station way the youngster has dropped? Were you larger at a earlier checkup or did your health practitioner say you had dropped? I'm simply brooding about due to the fact that you did not point out the ones matters. I believe you might have it backwards. I believe together with your first the youngster drops whilst you're commencing into hard work. And with the entire infants afterwards the youngster drops a pair weeks earlier.

Answer 3

Well, that is a loaded question! Babies usually drop around 4-6 weeks before they're due, but not always. You still have 9 weeks to go and by the baby being in position , well they can be in position a long time before they decide it is time to make an entrance in this world. Hang in there!!!! Time really flies once they are born. GOOD LUCK!

Answer 4

I dropped at 28 weeks. My little girl was born at 36 weeks and face down. Keep in mind that even though your little one has dropped into position doesnt mean they are going to stay there. They can become breached - flipped back the wrong way.
Also, they can be dropped and not into the birth canel yet. Those are different things. Once you go into labor you will really "drop" this is just getting ready for the big debut!!

Good luck!!

Answer 5

Baby can be all ready position-wise and have not dropped yet...I just asked this question at my ultrasound last week (I'm 33 weeks). My baby is the same as yours, all in position with the head down, back to my belly, ready to go. But I think you'll know when he or she dropps into the pelvic cavity, because you have quite a release of the tension in your upper body (your ribs, your breathing becomes easier, etc....) and your lower body feels more pressure. I'm waiting on that one, too!

Answer 6

My first baby dropped exactly 6 weeks before he was born. Babies after the first may not drop until delivery day. When the baby drops, you notice that your pants don't fit just right anymore and it seems impossible to do the things that were already hard to do like tie your shoes.

Answer 7

My first baby dropped 9 weeks berfore he was delivered. And as far as I can tell my daughter has already dropped and I am 31 weeks along with her. So she is down about 9 weeks ahead as well. lol
Pants don't fit right anymore, breasts aren't squished by the belly as much and you can feel more pressure down near your bladder. Not painful pressure, but you will probably need to pee more.

Answer 8

I dropped at 27 weeks. My daughter was born at almost 40 weeks. And then I was induced. So you can't really know. But I think in general, It's usually 3-5 weeks before. Congrats, good luck, and May God Bless!

Answer 9

Both my babys dropped right at the very end. Days before birth. I could tell because my breasts didn't touch my belly anymore!!!! You can feel the pressure of the babys weight down there, you'll know! Good luck!!

Answer 10

im not an obstatricain, but i gonna be one when i am a full adult, when the baby is positioned, that means that the baby is gonna be ready soon, so that means you need to be ready. the head will be facing down towards the girls parts.
