  Never dropped. Went to 41 weeks, labor did end up starting on its own, but there wasn't a distinct point when she dropped and she always sat quite high.

  Carried low the whole time, so it wasn't super distinctive, but both DD and this LO had "dropped" into position by 34-35 weeks.

  She never dropped. My water broke and she wasn't ready to come out. Ended up with a c/s at 38+6.

  I don't remember a distinct moment when DS dropped, per se.. I can tell this one has been moving lower here recently and I'm 33w currently.

  Dd carried low pretty much the whole time, but she settled into position around 39 weeks and was born at 41+3.

  I'm a FTM and LO dropped at 34 weeks. It's much easier to breathe now, but I have more pressure on my bladder.

  FTM and LO has always been pretty low but I'm sure I dropped around 32 wks. I get major lightning crotch and frequent BMs/urination. Fun stuff.

  I'm also a FTM and baby dropped Wednesday at 33+6. Just when I thought I was having a fairly comfortable 3rd tri so far... 
  
  Edit because apparently I don't know how far along I am.

  Two of mine never dropped, 1 never dropped even while labor. I found out I was carrying a 10 and a half pound baby moose. The other one was too comfy up high.

  
  

  It's a boy! Grow baby, grow! EDD: 4/22/2016

  35ish weeks? At every internal check he was really, really low but I never went into labor on my own and had to be induced at 41w, so the dropping didn't really matter.

  My first one dropped really early - around 31 weeks. I could literally feel that little head with each step for a good couple of months. But I made it to almost 40 weeks despite the early drop!
