Mel, I don't remember exactly when, but I dropped early with DS, I think it was 32 weeks. Jack arrived 2 days late, so about 8 weeks or so. I think if they drop early it eases some discomforts like reflux, but increases bladder and pelvis pressure so you can't win!! I think once the bub is head down they rarely move, so at least you don't have to worry about it being breech.
