I don't think so. I remember my dr. saying that pretty early in my previous pregnancies, but they came right on time.

No dont worry to much my baby was head down at 26 weeks and im still hanging on (my due date is today) if this is your first baby it is more likley to be late!!! Good luck!

Your doctor was basically making an observation about your baby's position. Some babies flip all around, while some get into the head down position and stay there! If you did go into labor early, that would not be the reason. You may feel cramped not, but believe it or not, your baby has plenty of time to flip around and back many times before your due date. Mine sure did!

He just means that ur babys head down and not breech, im sure he would have said baby was engaged if baby was ready to come out.Im 30weeks and bubz has been in the birthing position since 24weeks, he does tend to swing around ect, but likes head down more lol x
