Jonezy...at 32 weeks the baby was at 5.5lbs.  I went yesterday at 35w5d and she was 7 pounds.  They projecting her to be 9-11lbs when I deliver.  :)  One of the ONLY reasons I'm glad I'm having a c-section!!!  :)

I'm due November 20th and feeling anxious and excited. I have mixed feelings, I want my baby in my arms but I want him to be full term and healthy as well. I don't want to be pregnant anymore, but I have been admiring my beautiful pregnant belly bump and trying to cherish these last few weeks of my very last pregnancy. I can't wait to see what he looks like and to have him placed in my arms! I can't hardly handle the anticipation of how he is going to arrive. Will I have an easy labor? Will my water break again? Will I start having contractions? Will he be overdue? How much will he weigh? Will he look like his little brother? SO many questions, I can't wait!!

I do not do any pain meds. This time I have even changed my request to NO pitocin unless absolutely necessary. I want to labor at home for as long as I can stand it, then go in. But, I had a + GBS swab so I have to have IV antibiotics :\ I have never tested + for it and this is my sixth child!

Anyhow, 37 weeks tomorrow! Can't wait to meet this baby boy!!

I'm feeling pretty much the same: anxious/nervous/excited...I think more anxious now..Worried a bit too though as I'm 37 weeks and haven't felt a whole lot of contractions...so I'm a bit worried that they are gonna have to induce me...last time they checked at 36 weeks my cervix is still closed and just thinning a bit.... My baby @ 36 weeks weighed in over 8 pounds!!  So, I'm hoping to still have a vaginal birth..If I have to have the epidural, I'll take it...I think I'd prefer a walking epidural though so I don't get too much numbing waist down.

Amy0013 how much does your baby weigh?

I'm due on 30th Nov right at the end it can't come quick enough this is my first so I'm anxious, nervous and really excited. I really just want the labour over with I have a low pain threshold lol!!!   I cant wait to wear normal clothes again you know without them falling down all the time. I don't know what I'm having so cant wait to find out if it's a boy or girl. I'd prefer to have gas and air, and pethidine injections for pain, if I need an epidural I'll take one but I'm hoping i'll get through it without one.  :)

I know!  It's coming so fast!  I have a c-section scheduled for 11/23, unless my ultrasound tomorrow still shows fluid problems and still an XXL baby!!  Then it might be sooner.  I'm excited but also nervous about the changes it will make in my life and my daughter's.  :)  I know we'll all adjust...it's just overwhelming.  

Good luck everyone!
