BJ, it is very common these days that pregnant women are being told that their pelvis is 'too small' which is very often misdiagnosed - one of the Admins Lucy was recently told that with the birth of her son and he shot out! Our bodies have been made to birth babies and generally problems with pelvic size can mostly happen where there has been injury to the pelvis.

If you birth your baby in a squatting position, you can have around an extra 30% pelvic space for the baby to be born, so you could mention that to your Ob - this is according to fact.

If you don't want a caesar, then I would ask your Ob if he thinks it's safe to wait - and as I mentioned before, there is no magic time a baby would engage first or last, so if you want to give baby his/her own time to engage, then it's okay to make this known. Obviously there is a time and place for intervention when need be. But right now at 37 weeks, I would not be worried about baby not being engaged - pregnancy is 40 weeks long and maybe baby is just not ready yet! Will your Ob consider further action when you are overdue instead? The pelvic scans they do to measure the size of the pelvis is very misleading and inaccurate.
