Baby hasn’t “dropped”

Emily

Hey ladies, just a little bummed. Had my appointment yesterday and am 39 +3. My son has been measuring big for months now and I’ve been convinced that he’ll come early. I’m due Sunday 9.13 and my doc tells me his head hasn’t settled into my pelvis and that most babies do by 36 weeks. Because my husband is deploying in a month, we got special permission to induce next Wednesday 9.16 but I just feel like, why didn’t I know this before? I feel bummed and sad that he probably won’t come on his own. I’m trying to focus on the positives and am happy he’s healthy.
