When I found out I was pg we had only been trying for 1 month...........had been off the pill for 1 month and had a 'normal' period. When I saw dr my due date was set at 2/11/11. When it came to the dating scan they moved me forward 11 days making my due date 23/10/11!! Working things back I couldn't fully understand this as this would have meant I hadn't even had my period! I asked MW at the time if I meant I was gonna have a big baby, but she reassured me it didn't mean that. Aat my 20 week scan and private scan at 30 weeks the measurements have continued to fit with my adjusted due date of the 23rd...........however after a MW appointment today (random MW that I hadn't had before) LO not fully engaged and she reckons he's gonna be over 8lb and that bigger babies tend to take longer to make their way down and get things going with labour ( LO was 2/5 engaged just over 2 weeks ago). Since I am only a day or two off dd I am now wondering if my original dd is more accurate! I'm concerned because if 2nd november is more accurate then I wont have much time at all to have LO naturally before being induced (they only let u go 41+5 at my hospital).
Do u have any thoughts or think I should be concerned that LO not fully engaged and ready to go yet?
Thank u for reading. Not sure if I'm being silly but I am anxious at the best of times and it's starting to pray on my mind a lot!
