LO is 1/5 engaged :happydance: !

Everything's perfect with him - he had a heart rate of around 120 BPM, head down, and his little head is lying perfectly according to the midwife :).

She bloody hurt me with the Doppler though, but oh well, just so happy that everything's going well :D :cloud9: xx
 
It's exciting being told their heads engaged :cloud9: Glad everythings ok, on Tuesday when I was being monitored in hospital the midwife had a feel of where his head was and she said he's fully engaged :happydance: little bugger still won't come out though xx
 
they're always really rough with the doppler aren't they! I thought i was the only one who had that problem! Does it hurt having LO engaged? Apparently my LO is head down but not engaged but MW said i would probably notice when she did start engaging and i've just been reading in the November Sparklers thread about how much pain one lady is in because her bubs is engaged!?..xx

I'm not really sure because it doesn't feel too different to what it did before, but I've been feeling almost bubbly movements under my pubic bone, and occasionally quite sharp pains but nothing too bad. Although I have noticed that now (TMI warning :blush:) I'm quite often swollen, down there :blush: and it feels like I've been kicked in the foof :haha: (by someone else, not the baby :haha:).

It's nothing terrible though, just a bit weird at times, and it does make it harder to get rid of all of the pee when I go :blush:, I have to wiggle around and adjust position on the toilet seat to manage to get more than a dribble out LMAO!

Also, not sure if it's related or if it's just because I'm more pregnant now :haha: but there's been an increase in discharge, yet again. And it's thicker than it was before, but sometimes it goes really watery to the extent where I'm giving it "OMG babe, my waters have broke!" and then I put on a pad, then 20 mins later I'm like, "Oh, never mind, false alarm" haha :blush: xx
