help understanding uk engagement terms?

[hanni]

I've been for a presentation scan this morning and the midwife noted babies head is 1/5 engaged, does this mean he's only just engaged or quite far engaged?

Everything I've googled says it differs in each country! Please help. X

1/5 engaged means only just engaged

If it said 1/5 palpable then that would mean 4/5 engaged lol

Just depends on how they write it

Thank you! I'd best get walking then.
