FIRST TIME MOMS, when did your baby 'drop' for sure?

Question

I'm 37 weeks, 2cm dilated, 75% effaced and little lady WON'T drop. I'm trying bouncing on a birthing ball but so far, no luck. I believe my due date is wrong and she should be here soon.

(Also when the midwife checked my cervix today she pulled out her hand and showed me on the glove what was part of my 'bloody show'.)

With all this said, should my babe have dropped by now?

Answer

My doc says my turso is so short we may never be able to visually tell if my baby dropped ppl say I look like I have but I just think I've gotten bigger so idk

Answer

I'm 39+1 and still haven't visibly 'dropped' but he his head down and my chiropractor said she can tell he's further down than in the past. Try not to stress about it! Some people don't until immediately before or during labor. Good luck!

Answer

My dr said my baby dropped around 35 weeks cuz he was so so low when she checked me!

Answer

My doc checked my cervix and he mentioned me probably spotting a little afterwards. I don't think it's your bloody show I think it's just irritating the cervix makes you bleed. Just like having too rough of sex
