Hey Ladies,
Just after abit of reassurance really feeling alittle scared and I know im being silly. Im currently 38 weeks and 4 days pregnant. Have been told throughout my pregnancy (first baby) that he is going to be huge, at my 36 week scan he was estimated to be 8lbs already so they think he will be 10lbs (although ive since found out how these scans are not always accurate). Anyway ive been scared s*itless by them all that hes going to huge and that I wont be able to do it naturally etc and will need a c section, which I really DID NOT want.
I went and saw the consultant today to discuss birthing options and ended up having a sweep and being booked in for induction next Tuesday, when I'll be 39 weeks and 2 days. This all seems to have happened so quickly and as excited as I am, im also now bricking it. I have read soooo many horror stories about being induced, I know everyone is different but feel that being induced 1 week early cant be right. This is all because hes predicted to be on the big side and because of my BMI. I am super nervous and apprehensive, any words of reassurance would be appreciated, thanks ladies xx
