big baby "again" ????

[rhian85]

okies a few of u may know christopher was very big at birth (see sig) and it was missed as he was so big i have my first onsultant meeting on the 16th jan (2 days after 20 weeks scan )

only i havent seen MW for 3 weeks and as far as im aware at 18-19 weeks u should be able to feel top of uterus a CM or so below belly button well mines clearly around a CM and a bit ABOVE ??? so does this mean that its heading for another big baby ??? or are my uterus calculations wrong ???

beacuse il say one thing if its a big baby then c-section here i come christopher had to be deliverd with just gas and air as i hvae a low platlet count and at that time i had very low iron so anythin stronger was dismissed by anaethatist and ill tell u an almost 11lber with G&A aint my idea of fun at all

Hi

the midwife and consultant will be able tell you a bit more especially the consultant because your booked under him/her because you had a large baby last time so thats what they will be looking for.

I know the feeling of delivering a big baby naturally, my daughter was 11lbs 2oz and it went un noticed apart from my midwife who got me a growth scan but it was not accurate so it still went un noticed until her head came out and they said she's gonna be at least 10 and a half lbs!

I am booked under a consultant this time too. You'll have to let me know how that goes

Are you booked for monthly growth scans? Thats what my midwife has ticked in my notes but she's also ticked yes to me having a disability, when I answered no....dippy lady lol.

is it possible the snographer got your dates wrong at your 12 week scan?

I am under a consultant this time too but for the opposite reason, Maddison was only 4lbs 15oz so we are hoping this baby is a bit bigger so that he/she isnt so ill at birth I dont envy you giving birth to a baby that big though hun Ouch!
