I'm Currently Feeling: | I had a scan at 40 weeks & he was estimated around 10lb. No-one mentioned inducing but I was put on high risk. Indi arrived 5 days later weighing 9lb 2oz!
Don't worry too much, your baby won't grow as much in these last few weeks. Has your midwife told you to have more scans? | | | | Status: Offline

I think what's worrying me is that I thought it was the last few weeks when they put on the most weight? And I'm only supposed to be 34 weeks today!

GOOD LUCK!! | Hi,
did you know in advance that your first bubs was going to be over 10lb? Just wondering as I still really want to try for a natural birth as long as possible (although some people may think I'm mad!), but am worried that a couple of people have told me that if they know bubs is over 10lb, they will want me to have a section.
