When did your belly "drop"?

dneeliya · June 2014

I'm just over 33 weeks and noticed this morning that my belly seemed lower than usual. It looked like there was a larger gap between the bump and my boobs. And then a co-worker noticed it too so I'm not being paranoid. Is it too early for this to happen? Have any of you ladies noticed the same thing at this point in your pregnancy? TIA!

I was about 33w also when I felt I could breath better and noticed a gap between boobs/belly. I still can't really tell in pictures, but this week others have noticed I dropped.

Mine started to drop at around 32/33 weeks...rest assured it's not "the" drop. My belly has dropped multiple times. The most noticeable was at 38 weeks when I no longer had a shelf but a steep slope under my boobs, this was when when "the" drop happened confirmed by my OB.

My belly got lower around 34 weeks, but, as PP said, it's not "the" drop yet. I know when I had "the" drop with DS at 39ish weeks, I felt like I had a bowling ball between my legs. Fun stuff.

I am ready for "the" drop with this one. My ribs and back are super sore from her being so high.

I was around 34 weeks last time and during this pregnancy. (Just a little easier to breathe, but definitely using the bathroom more!) The actual drop won't be happening for a few more weeks!

My belly dropped when my water broke.

In this pregnancy, happened around at around 35 weeks. I had been getting upper back pressure during BH and then it became lower back pressure when the baby dropped. I also got fewer "any day now!" comments since baby was less protruding.

First time though, didn't happen til much later - my pics at 37 weeks look like baby hadn't dropped yet.

My little guy is still riding high! I am showing no signs of oncoming labour....just a waiting game

shanaynerz · June 2014

I dropped a few weeks ago. It's pretty obvious now so I'm hoping they arrive soon. With DD I think I dropped a few weeks before having her at 39 weeks. It's pretty normal to drop "early" though!

With my first at 36 weeks and with my second I was in transition about to labor down.

ahjahbaba · June 2014

I dropped about halfway through week 36

I'm 37W 6D and my stomach is still relatively high, it did very slightly drop and baby's head is in pelvis just not as low as it should get eventually, I'm a FTM

LucilleAustero · June 2014

With DD, mine never did.

Everyone has commented on my dropping, I'm 31 weeks, but I can't tell? My belly is lower, but my baby seems higher...but he also decided to turn sideways this week, and he's kicking my ass.

bewilderingstar · July 2014

I dropped at 36wks and then some more at 38wks. He dropped so fast that I got stretch marks. WAHHHH!!!

I feel like mine dropped a little in the past week (I'm 35w) and it brought much more frequent trips to the restroom and soreness to my lady parts. I like to pretend for my sanity that that area is only going to bother me during the actual delivery, but with this little drop not being "the" drop and the pain it's brought with it, my fantasy is starting to fall apart.

JudyParsons · July 2014

Yes that happened to me yoo! I didn't mention it to anyone though...I thought it was not a problem. Nothing happened after that I think it's normal and if you're worried ask your doctor.

I'm 38 weeks tomorrow, and trying to get the baby to do her late drop. I have 3 already, and they all dropped about a week before we delivered at 37w. I've been carrying low the whole pregnancy this time around, and she decided like 2 weeks ago that she would stretch out instead of drop lower. Every pregnancy is different so I wouldn't worry to much about the drop, baby just wanted more space to move around.
