Baby dropped?

Question

I'm 29 weeks today with baby number 3. My first two noticably dropped around 36 ish weeks. I was induced at 40 weeks for diabetes with both of them so I've never experienced spontaneous labor and I'm hopeful for this baby. Does it mean anything that she dropped so soon?

Answer

Unfortunately not. I wish though. 
My first two dropped ridiculously early which ended up causing me to dilate significantly early too. So frustrating! I was 3cm with my first by 37 weeks. 4cm by 39 and he still held on until the day after his due date. Second little guy I had my first cervical exam when I was having prodromal labor at 38+4. I was 4.5cm! He was extra stubborn and waited for labor to start the night of 40+2. 
This time around I’m like “I’m over it” 😂. I just carry my dang kids’ heads between my legs for months! Lol. I’ve had midwives comment though on me having a “roomy pelvis” so I wonder if it’s just easy for them to drop as they get bigger and what that looks like after having a couple of kids 🤷‍♀️

Answer

No sorry it doesn’t mean anything. Since it is your third, there is still a possibility that baby will turn again. My baby (#3) dropped already a few times... but now is higher again. 
I also have GD for the third time and luckily  I didn’t need to be induced since my babies always came a few days earlier (tried to naturally induce). Hopefully it works again this time but baby is already big.
