The Home Stretch!!

Today I'm entering my third trimester! It seems like time is just flying now!

I have a question for you ladies, my baby has seemed to drop further down...is this normal? It's actually been a little painful for me When he moves around and dances on my bladder it feels like he's trying to kick his way out lol. Have any of your experienced this? Did you baby move back up again or did he/she stay down there?

When I was pregnant with my first she dropped at around 28 weeks and stayed there until she was born.

Was she born early? Could this be a sign that he will come early? I have a doctor appointment on Wed, should I call my OB before and talk to her about this or just wait? I haven't been nervous about anything this whole pregnancy but this makes me a little nervous.

No, she was born 5 days passed her due date. Is this your first baby? I think first babies tend to drop sooner than subsequent pregnancies. From what you've described I wouldn't worry about but you could check with your doctor if it will make you feel better.

hey, i am 27 weeks and yes ashlee has gotten tremendously lower it seems..but also our babies go through growth spurts from 25 to 29 weeks so it could be the weight that they've gained that it has just started making a difference....

Yeah I also thought about that too. I hope that's it! I know he has gotten quite a bit bigger, I am feeling a baby moving in there now rather than just thumps in my tummy.
