Signs of Baby's Coming

Suley
So I was excited because my doctor told me my baby was head down. She also told me technically the baby can be born after the next three weeks. I'm 34 weeks right now. I was thinking well I need 6 more weeks and if I'm lucky it's only going to be 3. Then my MIL told me you are no where near having that baby. He has to go down and he hasn't gone down. Is it true? She said if your hand doesn't lay flat between your boobs and belly the baby isn't ready yet. And well I thought that might be because I have some fat going on there. She said my belly has to go lower. She told me she believes my baby will be born after my due date 😢😧. Also, anyother signs you girls had that show baby is closer to coming? Like the mucus plug? Etc...
