I just turned 28 weeks and already my son is head down, the doctor told me to go home and put my feet up and rest. Because his head down so soon does that mean he might come sooner that may?

Mama2006, it's normal for a baby to be head down at 28 weeks. Cephalic means that the baby is lying head down and the vast majority of babies are in this position for most of the pregnancy. The entire process of pregnancy-from conception to birth-takes about nine months, or 37 to 40 weeks. Follow your doctor's advise and get lots of rest.
