Carrying low?

I'm 30w with my 2nd and I am carrying soooooo much lower than I did with my 1st. With DD I had a foot or something in my rib cage and what felt like my chest at all times. With this one I still feel legs kicking but not nearly as high and I feel way more pressure "down there" than I think I did with DD. Plus everyone keeps telling me i am sooooooo much lower this time.

Anyway, my question is for those that carried lower or differently did go into labor earlier? I was late with DD and ended up needing a c section b/c I never progressed. Just curious if carrying so low was any indication of possibly going earlier???

Thanks!

Carrying low?

For me no. I will be 40 weeks Sunday and my baby has been low the whole time.. never had her living in my lungs/rib cage.. (maybe for 2 weeks) but she has been down in my pelvis for the longest time and Im able to breathe pretty good. My other pregnancies I had to catch my breath all the time and was kicked in the heart basically and of course in the ribs and lungs..LOL. this one not so much.
