Head engaged, regular BH.. should i be nervous?

[Visitor7]

Nina was 1/5 engaged at 32 weeks. I had her at 37.5 weeks. Emily was 1/5 engaged at 36 weeks, I had her at 40 weeks. Both times I had regular b/h.

Thanks for your comments everyone. Just an update, i haven't had anymore regular BH since i last posted so thats good. Still get them quite often though, guess its a good sign my body is getting ready for bubs arrival! I'm starting to get excited now!
Thanks

I'm glad they stopped. Some women get regular BH for weeks or months before they give birth so don't let it worry you. Others (like me) don't get them and just go into labour. Try to relax, it will probably still be a while yet.

I just found this thread while searching and I'm a bit excited!! Had midwife appointment today, told me bub is 1/5 engaged (approx of course) and in a good position.... I'm getting EXCITED!! although i"m pretty sure I've still got at least 4 more weeks to wait but still that's nothing!!! hehe

DS was fully engaged for 3 weeks before I had him.
AS someone said, lots of people have BH for a while before they go into labour, one GF I know had 13 weeks of BH before she had her DD.

3 weeks before I was due with DD1 I was told that she was 1/5th engaged, then on the day prior to edd I was told that she was not engaged and that I would be looking at an induction..I gave birth to her the next day. I had strong BH for 5 nights leading up to birth.

Goodluck
