my bub was fully engaged at 35 weeks and i knew before the midwife checked because i was getting sharp pains for about 10secs in my pelvic area. It takes my breath away. I still get them now, but its just the baby's head putting pressure on my pelvis. But i could also tell that my boobs weren't sitting on my belly anymore so my belly had dropped.( Im glad they don't anymore too Recently i was having a shower i could feel something moving just in between my legs. I was curious so i had a feel about, not even a inch in was my baby's head we went to get check at the hospital and it was. weird feeling, but it's down which is good.
