    engagement question (allen!)

    hi everyone

    heres an odd question, as of last week my bub was not engaged. on saturday i had strong b/h for 4 hours- 25 mins apart. at the end of this i notice bub had move from her spine being on the right hand side of my body. I can no longer tell where she is altho I think shes just more central. the thing is i get a lot of pushing now into my left pelvis. could she be on an angle and pushing into there instead of down? if so can this hurt her.

    I guess its possible its an arm or something too.

    thanks all

    Hi nelliesbelly

    The Spinningbabies website tells you how to do belly maps to tell the position of your baby. There is a link to the site in the breech and posterior babies sticky, here in the third trimester discussion.

    Hi Nelliesbelly
    I have just responded to your other post.

    I would think that the pain is caused by an arm/elbow/shoulder.
    If your baby was at an angle it will not hurt her.
    Try not to worry hun, not far to go now
