I’m just wondering if anyone’s had their bump drop and then go into labour or how soon? I’m only 34 weeks.
Baby’s head down, the pressure especially today is immense. I’ve been having on and off cramps all day
My first came at 36 weeks. Has anyone experienced something similar?

My bump dropped loads at 31weeks 3 days and I was feeling pressure, I was worried but then baby moved about a week/week and a half later and had a bump again! Though I did mention it at a scan I had at 32 weeks and they did a quick check to see if the amniotic fluid wasn’t leaking but all ended up fine (might be still worth calling them). I’m now 37weeks+1 day xxx

Im 36 weeks and my bump has dropped and i keep getting tightning around my belly
I’m currently away visiting family🙈 hoping baby moves position I don’t know how much more lightning crotch I can take lol. I’ve read up on some stories and apparently with second baby it can happen quite fast. I’ll deffo be phoning and getting a check up. I haven’t had a scan since 20 weeks and won’t be having another one unfortunately it’s just a guessing game at this point! I’m glad all was fine for you! Xx

Hey. Similar situation. My first came at 35 weeks. I’m currently 25 weeks 6 days with my second. First baby was breech the whole pregnancy. This baby has been pretty low lying for most of the second pregnancy and have been feeling pelvic pressure for a couple weeks. Consultant said it’s normal to have that feeling due to the position of the baby.
How far along did you deliver second baby?
our bodies are crazy! Haha, well my waters started leaking at 33 weeks, not enough for any concern tho as there was still quite a bit of amniotic fluid, I had him at 37+2, labour did start at bang on 35 weeks and I was admitted but given steroid shots just in case and they delayed it so baby could stay cooking a bit longer! But stayed in until I delivered🫶🏼xx
