I'm 34+1 today and I've just been to my midwife who said I'm 4/5 to the brim engaged. This is my first baby so really I just want to know....is this something to get excited about even a small amount??

    Just how much head is still felt by the midwife so 4/5 can still be felt 1/5 is engaged. I got a bit excited at the idea of it, I just don't want to run with it getting too excited haha

    Not really most ftm will engage heads shortly. And they measure it in fifths. Unfortunately it does not mean bump will arrive any sooner :( just that he/she is in the correct position
