How many mums have dropped with there 2nd bubs pre-labour?

Hi girls,

just wanted to know if there are many of you out there who dropped with your second or third pregnancies etc before you went into labour. I am 36 weeks yesterday and baby just dropped heaps today. I'm not in labour, but wondering if this means that labour will be imminent (like the next few days) or if it doesn't mean anything (except me being way more comfortable) and I might still go all the way to the end.

Any info would be most appreciated.

Jess.

SIDE NOTE: HOW EMBARRASSING!!! I JUST REALISED THAT MY THREAD TITLE SHOULD READ "'THEIR' 2ND BUBS" BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO CHANGE IT... ARRRGH!

I dropped at 34 weeks, had labour start at 34 +5 then it stopped until 39+5 when i went into labour again.

2nd time around, head was well engaged at 36weeks, but DS was born at 38wks. Gave me more room to breath, but painful down there with all the pressure!

My first engaged at about 36 weeks, but my 2nd & 3rd didn't head downwards at all til I was in labour. This one, number 4 has been engaged for 4 or 5 weeks now. So frusterating when you think it means something.... But I'm still here!!
