Well, I've reached 39 weeks!
The baby was estimated at 8lbs 3ozs last Tuesday at a growth scan and the results of a GTT on Tuesday showed I was borderline for gestational diabetes so have cut out sugar and cut down on carbs. The babies head was so far down they couldn't get it measured, but everything else was ok, except a little bit bigger than average.
Last week I woke one night with terrible lower back pains and thought that this was it - but I got to sleep and woke up the next morning with nothing!
In the evenings I get this pressure feeling on my cervix area which kind of takes my breath away! In the morning I have an increased discharge (white, thick TMI!).
Other than that all is ok. Lots of movement and he's strong! Sometimes I feel like I'm being bruised from the inside!
I hate this waiting game and not knowing when its all going to happen.
I hope you are all ok!
