Had 36 week hospital check

[stacey_lea86]

And I am feeling so negative. Mini Master G is 'apparently' on the small side & at the moment only weighs 2650 grams (5.8lb)

I don't get seen by the hospital again till my due date

If I go over, then I have to be seen every other day for ECG & scans! Okay, this I wouldn't mind if it was near. But it is a 20 minute drive away!

I do get to see my English midwife on camp/barracks next week so I am hoping she can tell me some more.

Good news - he is head down!

Me, I know it could be worse & some ladies are going through a worser time (so I apologise) just feel so negative & I am so upset.

I DO NOT want an induction, been there, done that was awful. I want the same birth I had with my daughter, completely natural & calm!

I want to avoid hospital stays & being stuck in that German zone for as long as I can...

well according to a pregnancy site and my book that is about the av weight for babies i wouldnt worry too much as they think babies put on bout half a lb a week which would make u about 7lbs

they will keep an eye and baby may even have a little growth spurt xx

The weight is fine I think she said. Just that he is measuring up a bit smaller than he should be! I am not sure to be honest. It can't be that worrying as she does not want to see me till my due date.

Just made me feel a bit down as I was hoping he would come a little before my due date. But then again you never know.

Just don't want an induction at all!
