This is my second pregnancy and I'm 32+4 and I saw my midwife today (who is very nice and supportive about me planning a homebirth) anyway I am 3/5 engaged already which she was very surprised about as often don't engage in second pregnancies until labour. Do you think this means he is likely to arrive early. I have had loads of Braxton Hicks.
My iron is also slightly low 10.4g so she has given me prescription for Iron tablets. Does anyone know of an alternative (suffered enough constipation as it is) but don't want to jeopardise home birth so want to get my iron up.
Lastly I'm planning on getting a la bassine. When should I order it. Dont want to spend all that money if this little fella is planning an early entrance.
Apparently he is on the large side as well. gone from 50th centile on chart to 90th.
Sorry this is a waffly post. just hoping some of you with more experience could let me know what they think.
Thanks heaps.
