Thanks ladies and no they checked at 20 weeks and again today now I'm considered 32.4 wks I always thought they were wrong cause my periods came on time! But now it's moved off to the side not all the way up but the doc said he knows it will not drop back! I will get a vag ultrasound at 35 wks to make sure all is in the clear!

So happy for you! My girl's head is down too and 50%, but placenta hasn't moved yet. They are checking me every 2 weeks though. Hopefully it moves. 58 days to go. Congrats and good luck mama!
