Routine midwife appointment today went well... baby’s got a lovely heart beat, is head down and fully engaged! (I was seen by a midwife on Friday who said baby wasn’t engaged at all - she could move the baby round a lot, now she’s stuck in position, 3 days difference)!

How long before your little ones turned up after being told the head was fully engaged? (I’ve been having all sorts of irregular aches, pains and tightenings the past week but I know this can go on for weeks)!

I saw the midwife on the tuesday and wasnt engaged at all, but went in to labour 5 days later so things can change pretty quickly!

I hope I have as much luck 🙈 her coming in 5 days would be brilliant for my aches and pains!
