Baby not engaged at 39 weeks

Following as I think the same is happening to me xxxx

No positive story but I'm almost 39 weeks and baby isn't engaged yet either. I don't think it's anything to be worried about as they can move down at any point now. Sending lots of positive vibes x

As long as baby is head down then don’t worry. My midwife mentioned that some babies heads do not get engaged until labour starts! Keep being active and hopefully it will change x

First or 2nd baby? If 2nd they do tend to pop in and out of the pelvis. If first baby then try curb walking, walking up stairs and hip rotations on a ball x

Lots of babies engage in labour x

first baby, I think that’s why I’m worrying

if baby is not engaged before labour, it might be something to do with the way baby is presenting which might significantly impact the outcome of vaginal birth. I would advice asking more questions and make an educated choice. Although there is a significant % of babies that turn during labour, however this is not something guaranteed though.
