Hi,

I had a hosp appointment yest, in there for about 2 hours. Everything going well, baby was measuring a bit on the big side but my other 2 were big so they weren't really concerned.

The doc I met was lovely so I was cheeky and asked her if I could recorded the scan she was doing on my phone to show to my 5 year old, he is all about the baby at the moment.

So now I have a video of my babs, it's amazing I can see the shape of the head really clearly and it's nose looks the same as my oldest.

I'm not back to the hosp for 5 weeks so I'll be in the single digits by the time that comes around. I'm getting fed up of waiting now. Just want to hold the baby now.

No complaints with me so far other than feeling tired and uncomfortable

32 week appointment yesterday and all is going well! Doctor just had a feel of bump and thinks baby is going to me big - which may mean all the lovely newborn baby grows I've bought never get used!!
Started ante natal classes too and if nothing else they'll scare you into doing all your exercises pre and post labour! Also great to meet other pregnant ladies who could be on the ward at the same time!

I was at the hosp 3 weeks ago, I was 28 + something and they reckon he/she was measuring at least 30 weeks. I had a visit to the gp yesterday and again he commented on the size of the bump and feeling babs, he said I'm going to have a fine big one!!!

I have 2 boys already and haven't done anything yet in relation to packing bags. I feel like I should but I know that I'll be having a section so putting things on the long finger.

These last few weeks are dragging, I can't wait for baby to arrive. I think the biggest thing for me is the thought of being away from the 2 boys for 4/5 days. I'll miss them.

My head is already being wrecked from my mother and mother in law asking me do I have a date yet and when will I have one. On my last child I told noone that I was going in to have him. I don't think I'll get away with that this time around.

So ladies how are we all doing?? Not long now! Still can't believe that pretty soon I'm going to have a baby!!! You'd think the amount of baby paraphernalia around the house would help it all sink in!

Hi,

I'm heading in for my section on the 18th, so today 2 weeks I'll be in the hosp waiting to have babs!!!

I had my last at half ten in the morn so I'm hoping that it will be early again this time around.

I've had the nesting feeling all last week and have rooms re-arranged, and a list of jobs for hubby to do when he is off.

I never had a nesting feeling with the 2 boys so I'm wondering if this means it's a girl this time.

In the last 2 months two of my cousins have had girls and looking at the all the pink stuff, I'm starting to want a girl.

Only 2 weeks to wait so I think that I'll manage.

I'm back at my GP this week, then to the hosp on the 14th for my final check up, to get bloods done and to sign consent forms for the section.

I'm feeling huge, I'm all bump.

Tomorrow is D Day for me,I'm booked in for an elective section in the morning. Have to be at the hospital for 7 so early start.

Fingers crossed that I won't be waiting all day to meet my baby, I'll be starved!!! I'm not allowed anything to eat or drink for midnight.
