2/5 engaged

[shyzy26]

hey all just had my check with the midwife and she told me my babas 2/5 engaged so how does that go is that near the fully engaged mark like 1/5 or is it the long way off like 5/5 being fully ive read up on it and other people say differnt can you help?

it depends where your from, if your from the UK, 2/5 mean you only have 1/5 to go, if you live anywhere apart from the UK. it has 3/5 to go, hope this helps xxx

yeah only got 1/5 to go then, but that normally happens when you go into labour so your basically there xxx

well im already booked in for a c section on the 20th of june but i started contracting the other night but they didnt last long so my midwife thinks she may make a early arival as this is my second child but who knows x

My notes said I was 3/5 palpable, is that the equivalent of 2/5 engaged?

 

[chlojones]

squeal no palpable is the same as engaged so you have 2/5 to go xxx
