After breakfast this morning I went back to bed for half an hour to catch up on some lost sleep. When I woke up I started sorting out the washing. When I finally got dressed at about 10:15am I noticed that my belly seemed a different shape and that I felt different too. I felt around my tummy and discovered that the baby seems to have dropped. The top of my belly feels empty and flatter which has given my lungs more room which is why I've had a more productive cough this morning. I'm grateful for that because I've had the rotten cough and cold the children have got over the last couple of days and it's hard to have a decent cough when you are heavily pregnant. Also The bottom of my tummy is very hard and full. At the moment it is hard to tell which way round the baby is but then it doesn't matter ATM. For the last couple of days I have been expecting something to happen. I have been feeling more focused on the birth and the baby has been in my thoughts a lot. I am really getting excited now, I don't really feel nervous at all!

Glad that you feel more comfortable now the baby has dropped. I bet you're counting down the weeks now. I've never felt nervous about labour either. For me, it has always been preferable to delivery and each one has got easier.
Lots of luck over the last few weeks of your pregnancy. Enjoy them while you can and all the excitement and anticipation that comes with them.
Take care. x

Duh - I just read that back and it should read that I find labour preferable to pregnancy!
I hope it makes sense now. :-)
