How long in between dropping and labor?

Question

Ok so for those of you who have had your sweet babes, how long did you go between when you noticed them dropping or “the lightening” and when you went into labor? I’m due the 29th but feel like baby girl has dropped pretty low. FTM so probably just getting my hopes up but I’m really praying she decides to come within the next few days because her mommy is SUPER impatient right now. 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

Answer

No rhyme or reason to this unfortunately. I’ve been dropped for two weeks already, which didn’t happen with my other pregnancies. Sometimes baby drops a month or weeks before hand, sometimes baby drops a couple of days before, sometimes not until you are in labor. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

Dropped at 34 weeks and in 39 weeks today!

Answer

Forever! 😂 My baby dropped nearly 2 months ago and here I am at 40weeks3days still pregnant.

Answer

Mine never dropped until I was in labor. I'm on number 5 and expect the same as the first 4.

Answer

My baby dropped 4 weeks ago (FTM) and he’s due this Friday 9/13 but no signs of him coming anytime before then 😅 everyone is so different, and maybe it’s just me but it’s so exhausting overthinking everything as we just sit and wait ⏰

Answer

My boy has been constantly dropping lower on a weekly basis since I was 30 weeks. 38+6 and labor far from sight 😒

Answer

Both of mine have dropped a few weeks before delivery.

Answer
