Thanks lady's I feel a lil better.. I was scared called my husband and started telling him that we need to start fixing the baby's room.. But I'll wait to pack. I have to go back in 2 weeks will see what they tell me then. Good luck to you lady's!! :)

Im 34 weeks and little guy has been head down since around 28-29 weeks. I havent packed my bag yet. I havent even had my baby shower yet because my coworker I thought had forgotten, decided that she's going to throw me one again. (Not really holding my breath on that one) So im kinda way behind and last minute on everything. Lol. We are still trying to figure out how im getting home from the hospital because my fiance doesnt drive, and I won't be able to drive. :-/

My baby has been head down since 20 weeks. I'm now 29w4d and she's still head down! She's facing my back and in the birthing position. Doesn't really mean anything labor wise, but I've already got my bag packed since with my first pregnancy I had preeclampsia and I'm just assuming I'm going to get it again. Nothing wrong with being prepared!

I'm 32 weeks and my doctor said I'm measuring further along. so when I get home I'm packing my bag and my hubby is getting the car seat all ready just in case.

That normal! :-) lol both my babies have been head down by 26 weeks and never moved. Didn't mean you will go into labor early. Pack your bags when you feel ready. Usually 34-36 weeks is a good time.
