Baby Dropped already!!???

ive been getting severe Braxton hicks since Sunday.. Then my pelvis started hurting to the point where I couldn't walk or drive. I went in to the doctor today and she says that the baby is head down and has dropped already. I'm now on bed rest for two weeks until my next appointment. I'm only 31 weeks but this is my fourth child. This has never happened before. Anyone else experiencing this?

It's normal. I start contracting by 28 weeks now and I get so used to the pain and discomfort of the contractions and pelvis pain that I don't realize it's labor till I'm 8-9 cm. This is baby 6 for me. It's normal. Just getting ready for birth. :)

Yep my doc says the more babies you have the sooner they drop and my baby dropped head down at 28 weeks then moved back up and is now breech so your baby could come back up
