haveing sex when the babys head is engaged

i went to my midwife on thursday and she said the babys head is very low and was realy pleased as its a gd sign for when i get induced next sunday!

well last night me and my partner had sex, and ever since the baby has been more active than normal!
since her heads been engaged she has been moving a little less, my m/w said it was normal as she dose not have much room in that postion! i was wondering if having sex has made her move so she is not all the way down anymore as she has been alot more active, is that possible?
its been realy worring me as it was all loking good for me to be induced as she was all ready!

I couldn't find any information that states that a baby can move out of being engaged.
I don't think having sex could have caused her to move but that's just my guess.

My baby has been engaged for awhile now.  I'm a full 39 weeks and just starting into my 40th week of pregnancy.  My baby has spurts where she squirms a lot and still can make my belly move in one big movement!  She is now always very active between 730-930 at night and about an hour after I eat breakfast. During the day she's pretty calm but I still feel little movements.  

You might feel your baby move more now b/c she is bigger, even though there's not much room in there, her size can make even her smallest movements be felt.

Good luck on your induction!
