Babe engaging early/ier in subsequent pregnancies

[~Hestia~]

My first never engaged until my water broke in hospital. My second engaged quite early, 30ish weeks from memory. I expected him to move up and down but he stayed locked and loaded! I had lots of prelabour before he arrived about 10 days early.

First didn't get past 4/5 until 41 weeks, and even then was at 3/5 right up until active labour.

Second was at 3/5 at 39 weeks, 2/5 at 41.5, born at 42.

But nothing about out family is common...
