Engagement
Midwife has said today that baby is 3/5 engaged. Has anyone had this previous and how long then until you went into labour?

My baby’s head has been engaged since week 35. Last week I was told it’s 2/5 and was told it’s not an indicator of how soon the labour will start. I’m currently 37+3
Engagement sadly isn’t an indicator for labour, some women go into labour and the head engages during the labour!
A month with my youngest… sorry! 😬
Baby was 3/5 engaged at 34 weeks for me, went into labour 40+5. x

i’ve not gone into labour yet but i found out i was 3/5 engaged at 36+3. im now 39+1 and still no sign of him coming 😭😭 apparently 80% of FTMs have their baby within two weeks of becoming engaged but that’s clearly not the case for me 🥲
