Here I am 2 weeks ago, at 32 weeks
Here I am yesterday at 34 weeks
I feel like my belly looks really different. That would explain all the discomfort too.

Hmm, I think your belly looks bigger but not really dropped. You still seem to have the same amount of space between belly and boobs!

I agree with Kate. It doesn't look lower to me but bigger! I have a feeling you will make it to 37 weeks at least but that is just my hunch.

I agree, I don't think it looks like you've dropped, you just look bigger

I agree, I think you mostly just look bigger, although maybe slightly lower.

He definitely grew alot... probably feels like he dropped to you because there's just more weight pulling you down! in reference to the whole boob to belly measurement, once mine started to drop, I could put my hand palm down below my boobs and feel ribs, not a big pregnant belly

But you do look great!

I think you are just bigger too.
I thought Nolan had dropped but when I went in in active labor I was still a +2 and he felt so low I felt like I was waddling around his head.

Yeah you're just bigger. I thought B had dropped but he was the highest + station when my water broke...+4? +3? Which ever his head was still bobbling around in there lol! you look great though and yay for 34wks....now get thee to bed! LOL
ok looking again, I see your point....he's more pointing downward. but again I think that is just the position he is in and the fact he's grown.

Ohh you will know when he drops. It will feel like there is a brick being slammed into your pubic bone all day long.

That's not a distinguishing factor for me lol. He's been right behind my pubic bone resting on my cervix for weeks now. It's been hard to lift my legs or due to his insistent pressing.

That happened to me EXACTLY. My doc constantly used scare tactics on me first with stopping every little contraction, then "the procardia must have worked too well because you're not going into labor at 38 weeks" and I ended up with an induction at 39 weeks because "this baby is going to be over 10 lbs at 40 weeks and your pelvis is too small" and of course what happened but a c-section. On a Tuesday. Learn from my experience! Let your body and baby dictate when and how your birth happens. Stay strong, I know how hard it is to tune out a doctor. Every cell of you wants to just go with the program because you're so afraid of something going wrong.

i allowed her to scare me while i was so preterm. But now i'm just over it. Especially after the last two visits. Where they just KNEW i would go into labor before 34 weeks..... and i'm past that and not feeling any labor pains.... I do have a little fear now that my body is soooo used to contractions, that i'll make it to full term and have nothing happen lol.
