Hope it all turns out well tomorrow char. Fingers firmly crossed.

Passion- I would love to have more but it took a long time and the treatments were really tough and even our fertility dr told us how surprised she was that it worked given how I'll the treatments made me so another would be an amazing bonus but it's not something we can plan on.

I'm the only one measuring behind... Hmmm
Click to expand...

DH and his sister are giants and they were both born at 10lbs 1oz, DS1 was small at birth but grew very quickly in the first few weeks to catch up so I think DS2 may just be that bit closed to his giant genes.

I'll try to measure later. He is now head down and I have dropped a bit, plus measuring 1 week ahead now, so it may be interesting.
 
well they say we're in the most rapid period of growth. My belly is so tight I don't understand how it can stretch anymore

I can't remember how far along I was when I checked, but I was at 40"
I can't remember if I measured standing or sitting either :shrug:

I'm either at 42.5 or 43 depending on if I'm sitting or standing
 
I have a question.. I'm starting to sort out the babies clothes and I don't know if I have the right clothes for the hospital/early weeks.

I have a whole bunch of sleepsuits (can't remember what you UK ladies call them) in size 0-3 months for 7-12 lbs. Are these too big to take? Is there a newborn size? I couldn't find any at the baby store

If there is a newborn size that I need.. How many sleepsuits and 'vests' do you typically need for this period?

Thanks :D
 
I'm 48" and 36+1.

We seem to have every size of sleepsuit imaginable in the uk. You can get early baby,tiny baby, first size, up to 1 month and newborn. It's confusing. Especially as at mothercare I asked if early baby meant premie and was told no there's a seperate size for that too!!
We've got quite a few small sized sleepsuits which will more than likely not get used and then some 0-3. I'm
Hoping I can go out once little one is here as an outing to buy clothes. I would say if you do regular laundry you'll only need a few newborn but if you like to let laundry build up get more. I've got about 20 vests and sleepsuits as I don't want to spend time washing when baby is here. But then I bought loads he may now not fit in so maybe don't buy that many unless you think he will be small?!
 
babyface15, more than likely your baby will be over 7lbs. I can't even remember how many is best to take in the hospital bag, all I remember is that I took far too many.

I have two piles together; one pile of newborn and up to 1 month size and one pile of 0-3 months. I have ended up with about 6 early baby (up to 5lbs) because they were new on eBay and very cheap but the person had wrongly marked them as newborn.

I found measuring fiddly but I got 48" and I am 33+6. Going by the I was 44" at 32+1. :shock: That can't be right? I know I am measuring a week ahead now but I guess I am bigger around too. I'm a little scared now.
 
Il probs take 5 vests and 5 sleepsuits to the hospital... Il take 3 in newborn, and 2 in like first size as that's what my daughter wore when she was born ...
I'm also taking new baby sleepsuits from next ...

I done my measurements stood up both times ... Il see if I'm measuring ok at the midwifes next time, if not i may take some smaller sizes ...
Just to be on the safe side! ..
I don't feel as if I have much fluid in my bump if that makes sense...

Omi - has your bump changed shape?
 
I am 43'' but didn't do it last time so have nothing to compare it with. I am 35 + 1.

Zf- how nice to have surprised the doctors! Your little miracle baby.

I am starting to buy sleep suits and vests now. Def need to buy loads then as I am not particularly good at keeping up with the washing. CLoth nappies are going to be a challenge!

Will they phone with your results tomorrow char? FC for good news x
 
He turned from breach to head down at the weekend so my bump has definitely changed shape. It looks like I have a massive bowling ball stuck at the front of me now and I must be carrying lower because it feels like said bowling ball is about to fall out of me. :haha: I am starting to think he is going to be bigger than I was expecting though.
 
I have had a waddle since the second trimester. I feel ridiculously heavy this time around.
 
He he I showed dh some pictures of newborn poop online so he could see what we were facing :haha: I think that should give me the motivation to do the washing as its pretty gross. Dh saw a video on utube on how to use a diaper sprayer and was almost sick! This should be interesting.
 
So I am the biggest for my weeks! Looks like I am having a 10lb er LOL.
A friend of my had to have a growth scan yesterday because she hadn't grown anything in the last 2 weeks, she was measuring 34cm at 34 weeks and then again at 36 weeks 34 cm.
They told her baby was weighing about 6lb 3 already and I am double the size of her and due a week after!!! Hoping I have loads of water around baby. Itching seems to have calmed down a little since last night thank god, can't wait to get these blood results today to see how everything is. x
 
Good luck today char...

A lady I know is pregnant and due on the 4th may, she's measuring 8 weeks ahead (4th baby) and she's massive, they think her baby is already at 10lbs!!

If when I get done next time I'm not gained much, so measuring 32 weeks now, if in still 32 or 33 il request a growth scan just to see what's going on ...
