I'm Currently Feeling:  | Back from my first MW appointment in a month!
I can't believe it's been so long but with moving house this is the first chance I've had and I had to book in under another hospital so I have 2 bounty packs now.  - Small things please small minds.
I had glucose in my urine today which is the 2nd or 3rd time it's happened in my pregnancy so they want me to go back on Friday for a glucose tollerance test. I can't help but think that since I'm 38 weeks tomorrow, it's a bit of a waste of time. She said I won't even have the results for a week - well he could be here by then!  Also I've been measuring small recently so I really don't think I have a problem.
Also his head is 3/5 engaged. I don't know how good that is?? I got the feeling not very. I also told her about the pains I've been getting and she said it's probably his head pushing down.
Thats about all really.... but it took ages. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Here's an explanation for the head engagement chart.
3/5 is 3 finger widths of head felt above the pubic bone. Your baby's head is almost half way past your pubic bone. |
