Hi all,

I know someone posted about this a while ago, but I am going to ask again.

This morning, when I woke up, I noticed that my belly had dropped. It was so obvious that not only did DH notice without me having to say anything, but the guy who sits next to me at work noticed it too!

Since about 5am this morning, I've been going to the loo every hour. It constantly feels like my bladder is overfull, and there is quite some pressure between my legs.

I'm almost 100% certain bub's head has engaged. I'm a little worried because I am only slightly over 31 weeks on and this is my forth baby.

I expected that, like when I had Zaki, the baby wouldn't engage until just before labour, so am wondering what it means if bub has engaged so early this time.

Please tell me not to worry and that this happens all the time. I've been surfing the net (norty! I know!) and a lot of info seems to suggest it may mean early labour. I've gone full term with all three prev pgs.

I want to call my obs (his office opens in an hour) but before I do, was hoping someone could help with some info, so I don't look like a total tool when I call him.

love
sushee
