At least we don't have to worry about New Years fitness resolutions for another few weeks/months!
Anyone doing the Genesis study in Holles St? I've my scan for it today, 39 weeks. Doubt I'll be able to see much at this stage, he'll be so squished up!
I actually was only talking about it with the OH yesterday!
I was always all for it but at this stage I don't think I could face going into Holles street (it is such a hassle!) I got the PEAR one and it was very good so detailed and she spent a good 30 minutes with us. I am happy enough all is well My next appointment is 6th January so I will see what the domino midwives say!0 -
Mine was in a really awkward position for the PEARS one, and the 20 week one, so we couldn't see much ... I'm sure this one will be no different. :rolleyes: He's an awkward little fecker already!!
Yeah I'm kind of regretting signing up, I'm sooo not arsed driving into town on a Saturday ... but it's booked now, so I'll go through with it. Had a mini-scan only yesterday and all was grand!0 -

I never have a clue what I am looking at the scans! It all seems to be organs! I love getting the print off of measurements and then you can see the growth! It gives me piece of mind as my bump is still so small I am sick of people telling me how neat I am so much so I was actually sent for a growth scan and the joke is he is so big and will be a good 9lbs. The plus side is I still fit into my normal clothes

I'm the same, people are constantly on about how small my bump is, his size is perfect though!
I'm so glad I went for that scan today - got some unbelievably clear pics, including some great 3D ones of his face! Cannot believe how clearly you can see every little detail, he's a cutie!
She checked all the organs etc again too and everything looks great. The head's not engaged yet, so I'm guessing I could be waiting another while before anything starts happening. 0 -

That is brill! I am not 39 for another 2 weeks I think! Would love some 3d ones so maybe closer to the time I may ring and book. I actually took the leaflet when I was in the hospital for 12 week appointment. You just ring the fetal assessment place don't you? I can't wait for this baby to come anytime after 1st January and I will be happy don't know how much longer I can handle the vomiting everyday

I am around 38 weeksDoesn't sound like it but i could be wrong. How far along are you. I'm 37+2 and only really feeling them now. The stitch could be just baby sitting somewhere. I am finding when I walk now that it's very painful down below and there was a lot of (sorry tmi alert) discharge today and i'm getting little pains every now and then since last night so i'm hoping something is happening even though yesterday they said baby was not engaged:(
Sorry just saw you are 39+1 I am hearing you on the pain down below and discharge. I feel like a cripple even getting out of bed! braxton hicks are still a mystery to me so I just push myself walking cos I am literally traumatised if I go overdue. Gp seems to think I will have baby before my next appointment with him. I wish! Can't handle the vomiting and heartburn anymore, actually have a tear in oesophagus 0 -

I would worry more about a huge head then a heavy baby!!!
I have never had Braxton Hicks,dunno if that is good or bad:)
Haha it's not totally huge, think it was about 65th percentile ... nothing crazy!
Still seems crazy that we have to squeeze something so big out of such a small space, though.
But I'm sure it's doable ... or else no one would ever have more than one baby! 0 -

What I will say is have your mind made up about what you want when you go in and be prepared to stand up for yourself and make sure who ever is with you is well briefed too..
I really have no decision made about this.
I'd like to have a go at doing it without any pain relief, but I'm not going to be a martyr about it at the same time, if I need an epidural or whatever I'll take it.
It's hard to know when I've never been through it before and don't know what to expect ... I'll probably be a lot more decisive on my next one, when I've had some experience!
Really hope I get a nice midwife on the day who might be able to help me with the decisions. My boyfriend's no help, he'll just tell me to take aaaaall the drugs. :rolleyes:0 -

I had to laugh in ante natal classes as someone asked about writing their birth plan, the midwife basically told her they do whatever is best for baby so you can't be refusing the suction things or forceps etc. they told us the epidural delays it as you can't move around and then you are more likely to need interventions. Now this could be a big massive lie from domino midwives as they want natural births! Lol lol My OH gives me no sympathy whatsoever and tells me I should take some tips from one of our dogs who never complained when she had 8 pups!!:mad:0 -
