Starting from about two weeks ago, I noticed my belly was shifting down and forward. It got easier to take deep breaths, but at the same time there was growing pain in my pelvis and lower back. This is called "dropping" or "lightening."
Several women at my church as well as a labor & delivery nurse have noticed the change also. This isn't a good indicator of when labor will begin, but we can predict that the baby will come 2 to 4 weeks from when he dropped. So....I guess this means we only have a couple weeks to go!
