I know that second-timers don't commonly have that '2-4 week in advanced' drop of their baby that would signal things are on its way. I fully expect to not notice a darned thing until this child is coming out. With DS#1, I went from "a capital 'P' to a lower case 'b'" as my guy friend was kind enough to point out fairly early on.
Here's the deal (pull up a chair, this could take a while)
My question is that my belly doesn't look distinctively lower (and I've heard if you carry right in the middle, it might not change appearance). It just looks bigger! However, my constant heartburn as diminished. I've gone nights without any trouble. I've also had an increase in my appetite. Almost eating regular-sized meals again and getting hungry more often. Is this a second pregnancy drop?
I'm not asking if my son is coming soon. I am fully aware that it's a total guessing game. I'm more curious if this is a second baby "dropping" moment. It's soooooooooo unclear! I figured there might be some STM out there with a similar experience?!?!
Thanks!!!!
