Yesterday I was sitting on the couch, and when I stood up, I had the weirdest feeling. Every since then, I've been able to breathe easier, my ribs don't feel smushed and I just ate 3x more at one time than I've been able to in MONTHS! You know, an actually meal rather than a little snack! I have a Dr. Appt Tuesday, but I was wondering if the baby has dropped already??? I thought babies didn't drop until 2-4weeks before labor started????
I'm 35 weeks now, but was told after an ultrasound weeks ago (I would say at least 5) that the baby's head was engaged, and she's still way low. I don't think it's all that uncommon for them to drop early.
Your right baby may have dropped down a little , he/she may not be engaged but they can move lower down. With my 2nd pregnancy my daughter was almost fully engaged at 34 weeks and I was convinced she was going to come early , but no she was 6 days late!
Enjoy this new comfortable feeling!
Your baby may have dropped or just moved positions. I carry very high so with both my pregnancies I always had my babies up in my ribs even after the doc. told me I dropped. Also I know woman who's babies are never up in their ribs at all. So it just depends. Ask your doc about it at your next appointment.
