Did any of you Not Drop and go into labor?

Every pregnancy my baby has been "floating" or pretty high. My cervix is up so high that dr's can't check it during an internal. I'm hoping for a VBA2C and am looking to see if anyone else has experienced this.

 TIA!

I didn't until very late in labor which I think is rare for first babies. At my 39w/6d appointment I had my first internal and she was still floating high even though I was between 2-3cm. MW could barely reach my cervix and my u/s that day showed her very high. I went into labor that afternoon and was still carrying high all through the night. When we finally went to the hospital I was 8cm and could still feel her kicking and pushing her butt into my ribs, even though the nurse that did my internal when I arrived said my bag of waters was bulging and low. I didn't feel like I dropped until my MW broke my water and LO was born 45 minutes later.

Good luck, I hope you get your VBAC!
