I never dropped with my first child. I ended up having a cesarean. The MD said the baby never dropped because she was too big and my pelvic area was too small for her to come down. So after 16 hours of labor and my daughter not being able to come down we went with a cesarean. Best experience I ever had. Hope I have the same experience with this baby.  Good luck to you.
