So, I think my belly has dropped... UPDATED w/ 38 Week Pics
but why am I feeling that "air hunger" thing I had in the first tri? It's not shortness of breath per se, but I just feel like I can't get enough air in a breath.
I feel the baby lower than ever, my doc said the baby WAS low and my belly looks different-- rounder and lower. 
Maybe it's just my sinus congestion? Ugh, I feel like such an old lady!!!! 
**************************
OK-- here are some pics at 38weeks;1day... What makes me think that I have dropped, is because I think my belly looks more round, and I feel like there is more space b/t my boobs and where my belly starts to stick out on top. AND, I have been feeling a lot more pressure and the baby much lower.
But, I have had a hard time assessing my belly throughout since I have been carrying so small.
Here are my belly progression pics.
a little more definition b/t boobs and belly!
No hands!
Can't wait to work on those thighs!!!!!!

Re: So, I think my belly has dropped...
it's the full circle thing again... probably just hormonal changes preparing you for birth.
i'm so sorry that these last couple weeks have been so miserable... i hope you go soon!!!

Re: So, I think my belly has dropped...
ugh... well, my doc did say that the first tri symptoms mean I am getting close.
I can't even speak excitedly without getting out of breath!! Good thing I guess that I spend most of my days alone...

i am terrible at seeing such things... i can't tell if i see a drop or not, but if you're seeing and feeling one, i'm sure it's there!! hoping that this is yet another sign that the end is near!

yeah, I just feel it looks a little different, and I am feeling so much more low down...
This morning, I felt some discomfort like in my cervix I guess?? Similar feelings to getting an internal. Like, I feel like the baby is trying to stick an arm out of my vaj...
Whatever, it is what it is... who knows.

I can't ever tell those "drop" movements even on my own belly but I do understand about not being to breathe. Its scary actually!
Hang in there!

yeah, i think the feelings in your cervix (or wherever it really is, i have no idea, but it feels like it's right in there) mean the baby is very low. i carried extremely low for the last few months of my pregnancy and as the baby got bigger and moved more it KILLED my cervix/vajay area. it was such a weird feeling, i would get these sharp pains and would feel like he was trying to stick his arm out or something 
anyway, it sounds like your little one is settling right into place... i'm jealous that you will be going so soon!! i'm having a hard time facing another 27 weeks of this myself, so i think i'm living vicariously through all of you late 3rd tri girls!!

I hope so! I will be curious to see if I have any more dilation at my next appointment on Tuesday. I mean, it definitely feels like SOMETHING is happening down there. I am getting too uncomfortable for there to be no progression.
Your time will come soon enough... You know how fast it goes!
