    Same here, no BH and Natty didn't 'engage' until about 2 days before she was born. (And I only know that because the middies told me - I didn't feel her 'drop' and didn't feel like I had a melon between my legs etc etc.)
    Hang in there. IKHYF about everyone popping before you - it seemed that way for me as well. It was as though everyone in my antenatal classes had had their babies by the time Natty's EDD rocked around.
    Try to keep busy and that should help to keep your mind off it.

    I didn't feel any BH. At around the same point you are at I started to get worried I'd go "over". I gave birth at 38/4. I woke up one morning feeling AF type pain & then noticed the show had started. I had pre labour for that day & went into labour fully that night & gave birth the following day.

    I had my OB appointment on the Friday and I was not fully engaged at that time. The birth was on the Monday. My bub dropped quite a bit on the Sunday morning (during pre labour) but by a couple of hours later had dropped even further (so much so my neighbour commented on it & said that she reckoned I'd go fully into labour that day and I did).

    So yes, you can basically feel nothing & everything appear to be going nowhere & then suddenly it all starts to happen.

    I know when i got my haircut the other day I was reading one of those stupid magazines and they had this article about her and apparently her friends were saying she is upset because lleyton is gone for several hours of the day and will be when the baby is born too and she wasnt coping too well, ummm hello my husband is gone several hours of the day too and i am pretty sure there are many more women out there in the same situation.
