Im 36 weeks now and baby is still not in head down position as per last week scan. Getting a little tension honestly. Is there still time for the baccha to turn ya not? would love to hear from anyone whose baby turned this late.
My baby dropped around 36 weeks too, and because of my gestational diabetes, my doctor was tracking everything closely. Keep eating your small, high-fiber meals to keep your digestion smooth since pelvic pressure can make u feel full very quickly.
I just delivered last month, and my baby dropped right at 36 weeks. I felt this sudden pressure in my pelvis and it became easier to breathe. My doctor said it's totally normal, especially for first-time moms.
Oh my, 36 weeks is so close to the end! My baby dropped early too and I spent nights googling if I would go into labor immediately. Just keep an eye out for any leaking or pain, and definitely call your gynac to keep them updated.
Yes, the baby starting to descend at 36 weeks is very normal as your body prepares for birth. Keep doing light, gentle walks if your doctor has cleared you for it, as it helps with pelvic pressure. Just don't overexert yourself.
I completely understand how anxious you must be feeling seeing your belly change shape or feeling pressure down there. It is a very scary but normal phase of the third trimester. Just take a deep breath, you are doing great, and talk to your doctor to ease your mind.
I am also in my third trimester and wondering about this! Did you feel a sudden change in how you walk, like a waddle? Let me know what your doctor says because I feel the same pressure.
