Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.

With your history at your 36 weeks of pregnancy, your baby is not coming down means not engaged, so the chances of normal delivery are less,it could be due to cord round neck.
You should be physically more active and you can wait and watch for 38 th week, may be baby head get engaged.
