Answer 1

Honey you have a few weeks yet don't worry some woman do not drop until there last week. YOur doctor would let you know if there was a problem. You are just fine, also first time mom ussually take a little longer.

Answer 2

a lot of people never actually feel the baby drop, i know its hard but youll make it, it sounds like it wont be long now, take this last little bit of no baby time to do soemthing for yourself, put your feet up watch a movie, go out and have lunch with a friend, just keep yourself busy and get plenty of rest and before you know it the baby will be here, good luck and happy holidays

Answer 3

Dont worry youll drop soon. You still have a few weeks to go . I didnt drop till late and it wasnt fun i felt like i was gonna pee everysecond cause she squished my bladder so bad. Smile know that your baby will not be late but on time. Patients is a virtue :)

Answer 4

Most of the time babies tend to drop during labor.
In first pregnancies it can happen weeks before labor starts.
Just go with the flow, your baby will come when it's ready.

Answer 5

No its not,I have had 6 children and only the last one dropped to allow the head to engage,And with the last one even though she engaged i had to have a Cesarean so stop worrying baby will come when it,s ready

Answer 6

you sound fine to me and your oby wud have told you if something was wrong.

Im 39 and half weeks pregnant and still feel like i cant make it to the due date. your experiencing normal feelings which believe me get worse in your next few weeks.

good look.
