    How long was it between bubs engaging and labour - baby#2

    Eeeek!! This baby has suddenly dropped really low and I've got a huuuge amount of pressure down there.

    Whilst I know experiences will vary wildly, I'm wondering how long it was between your second or subsequent bubs engaging and labour starting?

    TIA

    My second engaged at about 28 weeks, so ages before labour. It was terribly uncomfortable and I dreaded putting DS shoes on because crouching made it feel like she was going to drop out!

    Yep same for me. I was waddling pretty much as soon as I got pregnant hehe.

    DS dropped at 36weeks, and I had him at 38weeks, so 2 weeks of all that pressure and pain!

    All my babies engaged nice and early, but all were born post-dates LOL!

    Fingers crossed you've got a little more time up your sleeve!
