34 week midwife apointment


hello everyone.

ive been for my 34 week midwife apointment today.

my blood pressure is higher than normal but she said it was ok.
my blood results are all ok and not aneamic*spelling*
she said baby is head down but when i looked at my notes she has put in the section 'relation to brim' she has put 4/5 so im guessing baby is engaged 4 5ths.
so is that a little of babys head engaged or most of babys head?

can baby come out again? ie not engaged?

Sounds like a good appt overall. I have been told the baby can move up and down a bit still at this point. So you may notice some one step forward one step back kind of stuff with regards to dialation, effacement, and engagement.

Baby can come in and out of engaged position - frustrating for sure

The 4/5 engaged I would ask your MW what that means because it annyed me when I read it up to find it can mean shes 4/5 down or 4/5 left (so only 1/5 down)!

thanks for that wobbs.

she didnt actually tell me baby was engaged, when i was on the bed she said that baby was head down.
but when i got home and looked im my notes she has written 4/5.

can baby go nearly fully engaged straight away?
at all my other appointments babys head has been free.
