    3/5?

    just went to GP who said i am 3/5 engaged. i know what that means but just wondering is it possible for the baby to pop back up to 4/5 or 5/5 still? i have 3 weeks to go.

    LOL or maybe engage down to 5/5 depending on how the GP goes...

    Some babies 'float' (engage/disengage, or not even engage at all!) until labour, which is normal and ok Some babies stay engaged. You never really know until you actually go into labour whether bub will stay down or float around between now and then. Either way, its normal and ok and definately don't stress about it

    I think its more common for second & subsequent babies to not engage til labour.
    Neither of my younger ones did, but they were also 1 posterior & 1 sideways Just to make things interesting
