How do i know if my baby has dropped already?

[NiaIman]

I'm 29+1 (ftm) .. i think he may have dropped but i'm not sure. How can i tell? What does it feel like?

I felt a lump in between my hips (the head). When the baby REALLY drops like into your pelvis or w.e. your whole belly shifts downwards but that doesn't usually happen until 38ish weeks

If your not completely sure if your lil one has dropped yet, you can also stand sideways & look in the mirror with your shirt over your belly & your pants below it. If you know where your baby was sitting to begin with, you should be able to tell. Mine doesnt have much farther to go til his head is between my hips for delivery

Yes definitely more pressure and probably more visits to the rest room lol I'm 28+5 with baby 2 and I am carrying very low with her so hopefully she is as low as she gets before labor :) I also feel really uncomfortable when I walk and get pelvic aches and pains.

Im a ftm also but you definitly feel more pressure down there below the belly button :)

I was 27 weeks when baby dropped . Im 29 weeks now . I was in the shower and felt abdominal pressure and felt my lower tummy and clearly felt his head very low under belly button . There was quick pressure and cramping .
