Is it your first pregnancy? What you are referring to as "dropping" is medically termed as engagement of head. Engagement of head is commonly delayed in the first pregnancy. As long as your treating obstetrician is comfortable with the baby's wellbeing, you should not worry about anything else. All the best for having a normal delivery. Your baby in the womb can hear your heartbeat! When you worry, your heart beats faster!! so Try not to worry and breathe! :-)
