I'm Currently Feeling:  |  it is normal my LO was head down at 32 weeks. but not engaged. its better that they get in position then they will just slot into the pelvis when your ready to labour. dont worry hun some people's LO can be engaged at this stage but its not unsafe all depends on baby and you. my baby been head down for 8 weeks+ and she still isnt engaged so i wouldnt worry about preterm labour. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Someone I was speaking to said their baby had his head engaged at 28 weeks. I think it's normal. they just do it when the feel like it but they can move back out of that position again. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | My LO is head down as well, way down. My midwife was a bit surprised by how low it is, but I have carried low the entire time, so I was not surprised. |
