Do you "drop" all at once, or does it happen gradually? I'm a little lower than I was (ie. LO can still each my ribs, but I can breathe easier.) However, I don't think I look low enough to claim I have "dropped." Just curious. TIA
I think it's usually pretty noticeable when the baby drops. The baby will always reach your ribs, though. They will kick you in the rib until they come out.
I don't think this is a dumb question. I can never tell when I drop. I went for my check up this past week and I was told I def dropped because baby's head was so low. People kept asking me have you dropped and I was like "I don't know."
I couldn't tell the first time around that I dropped, but this time it happened and i noticed. It is A LOT of pressure for me in the pelvic area and it always feels like I have to 'pee' and only a trickle will come out. The pressure makes you start to waddle around instead of walking normally. She's definitely flipped.
