how do you know?

Question

how do you know when you have dropped/or baby has turned? my doc mentioned when he turned my hips may hurt less during sleep. (I've had some pretty uncomfortable hip pain) and the past 2 days I haven't had any hip pain during sleep!! But my ribs are starting to hurt and lower back. So I'm just wondering if those are signs of the baby moving positions? It seems like I still feel movements in my sides though.

Answer

I knew mine dropped when I started feeling a lot of pressure when I would stand or walk.

Answer

The way I knew that my baby was head down was that when she got the hiccups I started to feel them more in my pelvis.

Answer

I could feel him when he went head down and dropped. More pressure lower and I had really bad pain around my ribs that went away immediately. 
But my doctor did eventually confirm it at my 36 week appointment

Answer

I’m not sure about the hips although you know now that you say that my hip pain has gone down and I know baby is head down from an ultrasound Thursday.  For me, I was pretty sure of it because I started having a good amount of pelvic pressure.  I’m 32w.
