Baby dropping?

How can the doctor tell if the baby has dropped? When will they usually drop for ftm? I'm 32+3 and he hasn't dropped yet should I be worried?

No dont be worried. Hell you could probably tell the doctor your baby has dropped before the doc officially checks lol. You will be able to breathe sooo much better, your appetite will go up, and the pressure between your legs will be horrible. Also sitting is next to impossible since baby is right there. We just dropped like 3 days ago and I knew by look of my belly, the change in weight and I went from no appetite to wating two burgers and two helpings of mac n cheese in one sitting lol. Sure enough the next day at the doctor they confirmed my daughter dropped and they couls feel her head.
