What Week Do Babies Drop?

At what week do babies usually drop? I know all aren't the same... Just looking for a range. I'm 34 weeks and last night I had sharp pain by my panty line and a lot of pressure... I was getting freaked out. Not sure if I just overdid it doing housework or if it was baby dropping

Re: What Week Do Babies Drop?

I'm also 34 weeks and the baby noticeably dropped this weekend- although still a ways to go. So you'll actually see it.

Last pregnancy, I didnt drop all the way until the week of when I gave birth.

it doesnt mean much unless its coupled with your mucus plug, or contractions

DD didnt drop until i was at the hospital in labor
i was 41w1 day
i got to the hospital at midnight, my water broke around 2:30am...the baby was still too high so they sat me completely upright hoping gravity would make the baby drop now that the water broke. after 2 hours she finally dropped
if she didnt drop they were going to need to do a c-section

there isn't a time frame where babies drop some drop before labor some drop during labor it depends on your body

I had DS at 41w1d. He never dropped. Part of the reason I had to be induced / have C-section ultimately.

I think my already dropped and I'll be 33 weeks on Sat. Visually on the outside I look the same but i'm not that big.

For some reason, this past week has felt completed different then any other week of pregnancy.

Who knows.
