Can somebody tell me about baby dropping?

Okay...I am thinking she is dropping because I am starting to feel her WAY more downstairs and way less up by my ribs.  The weirdest thing....I have always been able to feel her more laying down...now I feel her more sitting up.  And most of the movements are felt downstairs.

Would you take that that she is heading or is in the pelvis at this point?  I have my 37wk appt on Thursday(we'll be 37wks, 4 days...but thats all they had this week!).

I am determined that this baby is gonna drop or they won't induce me until 41 wks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well...thats not in writing, if she gets too big, they will...but if she doesnt drop, I most likely wont go into labor on my own and I really want to!!!!!

Updated since I had my baby....280(highest pregnant)/245(current)/140 still is my goal and I know I can do it!!!

The title of your post made me giggle.  My first reaction was "Try not to do that". 

Anyhoo...I don't really know about the dropping but I have the same type of feeling, including being able to feel her more when I'm sitting up.  She was engaged at my 36 week appt on Monday but I don't know that she couldn't move back up...who knows?

I really want to go into labor on my own as well but my doc isn't letting me go past 39 weeks so I have to try everything I can to get this party started before then.  Everything I've read about induction makes me not want it.
