Anyone have a LO who's head is low...

EM42 · March 2010

My LO's head has been low this whole pregnancy which the dr says is no cause for concern but I am only 27.5 weeks and have been feeling pressure the past week or so. Anyone else have this experience and made it to there EDD?? TIA

I had an u/s yesterday and my LO head is sitting down at my pelvic bone! I don't see my doc until next week, but I assume that is a good thing she is low. I agree with you though, the preassure sucks and I have been feeling it for a few weeks now too.

Well I haven't made it to my EDD yet, but my LOs head is also very low and right at my cervix. This gives me a ton of pressure too. I talked to my OB about this on Monday and she wasn't concerned at all. She said that the pressure is just becuase she's pushing down so low and that as long as I'm not dilating or anything its totally fine. She did do an early internal just to make sure I'm not dilating or anything and I'm not!!

DS has been head down since week 24...yeah no fun once they start getting closer to delivery... My doc said he is on top of my cervix and can't get any lower.

I went into L&D Monday for early labor with contractions about 1-2 minutes apart for over 6 hrs....they slowed and I didn't have any dialation so Im resting and waiting...

Yep, my LO's head has been quite low the entire time. I am 4 days from my EDD.

LO has been head down all the way against my cervix since about 18 weeks. I have growth ultrasounds every 3-4 weeks and he is always way down there. He also likes to put his feet over his head, so that can cause quite a bit of pressure. I see a MFM for my ultrasounds, and she is not at all concerned about his position. We always joke that he chooses that position b/c his head is so big and heavy! His head is in the 95 percentile! Ouch! I don't think LO's position has anything to do with you making it to your due date. He's probably just ready for a speedy exit when the time comes Big Smile

I've been feeling pressure down there from about 28 weeks on. At 32 weeks I had a growth sonogram and the babys head was all the way down in my crotch - for visual purposes, he/she was at my hairline down there.

My girls head is very low too, but no one (tech or Dr.) mentioned any concern about that. She just makes it difficult to see her face or get a picture. I hope there is nothing to worry about. My Dr. already thinks I worry to much!:)

Mine's been low and head down since 30 weeks and I'm still hanging around!

I wasn;t sure until reading this, I am pretty sure he moved to head down position ysterday or Monday sometime...since yesterday I have been feeling much pressure down there and on my bladder...I go to the doc today but only for my last 2 week appt I wonder if the doc could tell for me where our little man's head is at bc if it is that would explain the sudden pressure lately.

My LO's head is low. She's been head down since 25 weeks (maybe sooner) when I went into PTL and I feel more and more pressure every week. If you're not contracting, no cervical changes, or anything like that I'm sure you're fine. Hopefully our LO's will be patient!

Oh man is my LO a "low rider"! I swear his head bounces off of my bladder and I have been experiencing a lot of pressure in my cervix and in my pelvis lately. His little butt is in my ribcage on my left and he loves to kick his feet out under my ribs on the right.
