So I just got back from the prenatal appt. I guess I measure 5 weeks earlier than my due date, but the baby is healthy otherwise ...Either way, the obGyn mentioned that if I keep going at this rate, I most likely will have a C-section, which I reeeeeeally dont want!!! Now Im scared shitless!!

You still have lots of time left in your pregnancy, and she has no way of knowing for sure you're going to have to have a c-section.

oh hun. lets hope it doesnt come to that.

Love, you still have loads of time. Ignore her, you do not have to have a c-section.

Jenny

Like the other girls said, you have lots of time hon. She has no way of knowing that already

What's up with all the doctors jumping to c-sections?? I HATE that! This is why I want to move to England next time I get pregnant. Drs. in the US are SO gung ho about child birth.

You still have loads of time left before something needs to be determined. Babies tend to grow at all different kinds of rates! Don't let your doctor convince you otherwise until it's much closer to time.

Mine said if I go by what I'm measuring I'll be a few days early. If I go into labour 2days early and have her a day early, my sister is going to kill me! Then again, they always come at the most inappropriate times.

I don't mean to question a midwife, but, they really don't know what they're talking about sometimes when it comes to size. My friend was told her uterus was measuring big so she would be early and her baby would probably be around 9lb. He was 13 days late and 6lb13..

Yeah, I dont really buy this whole fundal height thing. If she told me this after an ultrasound, I would most likely believe her...

Try not to listen babe, I'm sure it won't come to that, midwives can only estimate the height of a fundal, I was told by my mw that Jasmine would be in the 9lb's and she was 6lb 14, I had a feeling she wouldn't be huge though anyway.
