A member asked:

If you are carrying low in pregnancy does it mean your baby gone before the due date ?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Pregnancy: You should not be worried but it would be wise for you to see your Gynecologist as soon as you can. I feel confident that you will be carefully handled and all is OK.

NO,not: necessarily. You may go into labor at the due date or later. Carrying low does not mean premature birth.
