ALL MY BOYS WERE BIG BABIES.....
i have had a 9lb.8oz DS1 (5 days over), 9lb DS2 (2 weeks early - he was tall rather than chubby), and 11lb DS3 (10 days over)..all natural births....
this time i am being monitored but seems like she is going to be a big girl too..at 29 weeks she measured avarge 3lb, last week (at just 33 weeks) se measured approx. 5.9lb, it is estimated she may get to 8-9lb....but i am desperate to have her small...want her to last longer ebing small, want an easy peasy labour and just basically have her soon now as i am feeling lots of pressure down below and burning sensation when i walk on my bladder area as she seems to be bouncing on it when i walk...!!! i have also not bad but SEVERE acid reflux and hearburn....i also get out of breath easily and lots of pulling pains and aches and cramps with some very occasional braxton hicks..oh and i forgot i get lots of leg cramps....
so yep...not doing goo at all hence the desperation to have her out..i am assuming that she may be about 6-7 lb by week 35-36+ so i am desperately hoping to induce myself but doing my own sweep, sqatting and hot baths to initiate natural labour....i really want to have her smaller than usual..so at 6-7lb i am hoping she will be ok enought to be able to breath on her own...(as i have her hiccuping now for several weesk i know she is getting her lungs ready......)
i am currently 34 weeks tomorrow.....so another week to go before i can really try and get things starrted myself.....the latest i am hoping to have her is 38 weeks....any longer she will be too big and that will make me sad....
