    What is this? (slight TMI warning)

    A couple of days ago I was on the toilet doing my business . I pushed a little and felt a sudden pressure down low (I guess where my cervix is??). The feeling lasted a little while - and then it either went away or I got used to it.

    At my midwife appointment yesterday I found out bub had dropped a bit since last time (now 3/5), so I wondered if what I felt may have been bub's head starting to engage?

    Anyway, was on the toilet again just before and felt a very similar feeling, and now I can feel the pressure almost constantly - not as strong as when it first happened, but a definite pressure there.

    Am I feeling bub's head dropping and engaging?

    Oh, and I should add - today when it happened bub had the hiccups, and I could feel the hiccups down lower afterwards.

    Sounds like it's bubs head, with Ds he had and arm above his head for the last two weeks and I felt the punches low in my pelvis as well as what felt like a bowling ball it was an odd feeling and he eventually punched and broke my waters.
