I had BH starting around 34 weeks with my first.  Dropped at 37 weeks when she flipped from breech to vertex and painful contractions only 24 hrs and delivered at 38.5weeks. This time starting having BH at 24 weeks. Since my exam last Friday at 36.1 weeks I have been having more uncomfortable contractions pelvic pai/n/pressure and baby has definitely dropped.

Apparently I have BH  but don't feel them. The last time I saw my midwife I had several during the exam but couldn't feel anything even when she pointed it out.  So maybe you actually are having them,  a lot women don't feel it happening.

Didn't get any BHs with first pregnancy and didn't drop until a few hours into labour...
2nd pregnancy had BHs from 20 weeks, and dropped at start of labour.
3rd pregnancy had BHs from 9 weeks :)
