dropping?

When are you supposed to start dropping? Friends and family have been all too eager to point out that I'm already lower than last week, and at 27 weeks, I'm a little nervous. I know the weight of my belly is making my barely 5'1" body look bigger, but I myself was born at 27/28 weeks. Thoughts? I am going to my at risk doctor Tuesday.

I just went to my 30 week and things are fine. He was a little surprised I'm going to try to work until week 38, but said as long as I feel fine lol

I wouldn't put much stock in what people say about you dropping.  Your dr will measure you.  I'm sure you're fine :)

It's normal to drop as time gets closer. I am already super low and it looks my belly is hanging off.
