I was told that the baby's head is currently 2/5ths engaged. My Braxton-Hicks are very strong although very irregular but wonder if this means that the baby will come early this time?

If baby’s head is 2/5th it means that baby’s head is engaged in you pelvis. It doesn’t mean that baby is likely to come early, nor do strong Braxton Hicks contractions make this more likely.
