HELLO DEAR
I understand your concern , Dear in primi means during first baby engagement ( means biparietal diameter crosses pelvic brim) occurs first then effacement ( means cervical changes ) occur and you symptoms suggesting that engagement have occured, So in my view you should consult your doctor and get the internal examination done to know cervical status and station of head so they can plan your delivery accordingly. ALL THE BEST
THANKS
