Moms... in what week did your 2nd baby flip to the head-down position?

Question

.

And is it different for 1st babies compared to 2nd babies?

Answer 1

my first, a girl, never flipped until i had been in active labor for about 4 hours. (active labor meaning after my water was broke-some people have different meanings)

my secons, a son, dropped 2 days before my induction @ 38 weeks.

i have heard all different times. i have heard also that things happen quicker with the 2nd and on, the first being a little more stubborn.

to me, it felt like a sudden, unexpected increase of pressure in my v****a. kind of like i was going to drop something out. (literally). it also seemed to me that i could breathe easier. i didn't feel so "large" persay, like a lighter feeling.

every pregnancy & baby is different (please don't scream for me saying that, i know you get tired of hearing it lol) -i have seen babies drop alot earlier than that, and everytime (3 times, different people) they had to deliver early, stop labor etc.

by the way im on my third, and it has been the worst pregnancy ever-horrible. both my first 2 were alot easier, this one , i am anxious to get it done!!
