Does holding in urine affect a child's entry into the pelvis?

Patient's question:

I would like to ask, my last menstrual period was from April 13th to April 20th.
Is the due date January 20th, 2006?
If it is January 20th, there are still 9 days left until now. But the baby is still at the edge of the pelvis and hasn't dropped down yet. Is this normal? Does frequent urination affect the baby's descent into the pelvis? Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Hello, because holding back urine can cause excessive bladder pressure, which can lead to changes in the reproductive system and have a certain impact on the development and health of the baby. Pregnant women should not hold back urine during pregnancy.
