Pressure and heaviness down low already

[chody47]

I know each pregnancy is different, and pretty much everything can be a variation of normal, but as I didn't experience this with DD I just wanted to check.

Since yesterday I have been feeling like bubs has suddenly become very heavy and I have a lot of pressure below. Bubs is obviouslly in a different position and i think that maybe they've dropped already, resulting in them feeling much heavier all of a sudden. Is it normal to feel like this at 27ish weeks? Last time I don't remember this at all, and, if anything, it started fairly late.

Yep, DD engaged at around the same time, and i was waddling from then on

That's good - and she wasn't early too! I'm worried that maybe this would mean bubs would be extra early.

Both my girls went head down at around 28 - 29wks so could be what has happened for you, are you fwwling any kicks up around your ribs?

Not ribs yet, but I'm getting more closer to my belly button height - before they were all down low.

DD turned at around this stage, I just didn't feel the pressure yet!

I'm getting that this time around too. They tell me bubs isn't engaged yet but the pressure is pretty full on most of the time. My bubs is definitely head down and did that early on, so I sympathise!
