Question about dropping....

So, i'm carrying extremellllyyyy low. The whole pregnancy has been that way. I know my baby's head is down (i'm measuring 31 weeks), but doesn't that have something to do with "dropping" or is that something else? How can my baby get lower than she already is? *confused*

edt: obviously she'll get lower when she's in the birth canal, lol, but i'm talking about now, lol

MMMM, good question. Im carrying the same.
Topic watching.

i dont understand the question...guess im slow. lol

are you asking if how you are measuring is affected by dropping?

Quoting Dereks Mommy:“ are you asking if how you are measuring is affected by dropping?”

no, i guess i'm just asking what to expect 'dropping' is, or even means for me. Everyone else i know (Except Rachel up there, lol) is carrying high enough to notice a drop in positioning when their baby is gearin up for birth (even if it is still a month away for some people). But i don't know how i'll notice it. That "dropping" thing seems pretty important... so how will i know? Isn't ella already in a 'dropped' position, since she's always been so low?

oh okay. well i carried pretty low with my son, but i definitely noticed when he dropped, because i could feel a pressure lower, like kind of on my hip bones. it was harder to walk, and you can jsut tell. So that's the best asnwer i can give. lol

well that still helps, so thnk you   Maybe i'll notice her dropping lower. I'm just so uncomfortable, and with her head below where i zip my low-rise pants, it's just so tender and uncomfortable. And i can tell my cervix is achey and blaahhh. I can't wait til my midwife starts checking to see when i have labor progress. I always used to wonder what women were in such a hurry to have their babies for, but i'm starting to understand.. I've got 60 days left, and i'm already like "alright, let's get this show on the road." lol

yeah i always carried low with my little boy and like 2 weeks ago i noticed i was lower and i have been having major pressure pain; i went to the doctor today about it and she said that he was just dropping and that im like 1cm dilated! (: i guess you will just know hunn; i used to wonder the same thing as you!

wow i pted you when you first became pregnant, so that's crazy to think you still have 60 days left! yeah i dropped around 34 weeks i think, but i didnt dilate past 1 centimeter until the night i went into labor. but every woman is different.

Your hooha will hurt like hell. I feel like she is going to bust out when I stand up, and when I am laying down I am very aware of where her head is sitting. Its like having a bowling ball between your legs. I think if Olivia drops anymore she is going to fall out.

Oh thats friggen great! I already feel her on my hip bones   and its already hard to walk. I cant wait till they check me and see that Ive been serious the whole time about her being soooo low.

and haha Olivias mommy... I know what you mean. I can feel her really low when I am standing and when I lay down, sometimes I can actually feel her poke me in my cervix... it really hurts!

i carried really low, and trust me, she got lower! lol.

yeah it felt like he was pushing his head down a lot towards the last week of my pregnancy, great fun! lol yeah they should tell you how much station you are, like -1 or whatever, and that is how low their head is, so thats fun to find out . lol
