think my baby dropped!

Started feeling her VERY low today so much so that it became pretty painful, I had to stop and catch my breath several times. Then at school, someone commented on sight that it looked like I had dropped. I think Im getting close to the end! (lol watch me be pregnant 5 days past my due date!)
anyone else experience "lightening" yet?

Same here!!  I want her to be out already!!  I am not due until "officially" May 27th!  I say that because my last ultrasound said May 22nd!  Either way, I'm so ready for it to be like yesterday!  LOL!!!

yes i was told I had dropped when i was 32 weeks.  And I did notice more pressure on my bladder, and everytime he moved it like sent a shock of pressure all the way down like into my vagina area, its weird lol...  And then last week at my doctors appointment my doctor checked me for the first time, and he was so amazed, he said my babies head is way down there like in the birth canal, so i wont have to wait that extra time in birth for him to move down there.. lol.. so that explains all the crazy pressure... Im 36 weeks now and so ready for him to come..  I lost a few pieces of my mucous plug yesterday, but nothing since then, i keep checking for more,and im getting so annoyed that nothing else has come since 1 yesterday..  I want him out.. I know im only 36 weeks, but he will be perfectly healthy at this time, plus its all in my head. Some days I feel like hes comin soon, then others i feel like I might go over my due date...

Wooh today is April 7th.. My due dat is May 7th... 4 weeks exact till my due date!!!!

Ya, I had some co-workers say I looked like I dropped last week.  I didn't really notice it until I started to feel him lower when he was moving.  I also now feel a little more pressure on my bladder.  It seems a little easier to breath with activity so that is nice.  I agree it feels nice to know we are getting close to the end.
