A member asked:

Almost 37weeks but my baby still hasnt drop.. can i give birth naturally if if she wont drop?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes!: You still have a few weeks. Some babies don't "drop" until you actually go into labor. At this point, you need to wait for labor and stay in close contact with your Ob. Best wishes!

Our infant did not receive the hepatitis B vaccine at birth - is it okay to give the first dose with all the other vaccines at 2 months? Or is it worth spacing it out? Is there any benefit to spacing vaccines out vs. all at once?
