relation to brim / eng

[rotts05]

I just wondered if anyone can help decipher my notes!
Im being seen weekly now to keep an eye on my bp, 3 weeks ago baby was 'free', last week 'at brim' and today 'fixed'.

I understand free and at brim, this is baby number 3 so im not expecting this 1 to engage until the very end if at all. I just don't know what 'fixed' means.

2/5 or 1/5 huni thats what fixed equates to x

Fixed means the head is fixed in the pelvis xx

Thank you both, he could still pop out though couldn't he? Is it 1/5 - 2/5 engaged or palpable? I will see what he's up to next week!

He could still come out yes as its your 3rd baby. The mw hasn't actually specified how fixed he is so its not possible to determine 1/5 2/5 etc xxx

Thank you, I'll not get excited then

Haha he could equally stay put and get ready to pop out good luck xxx
