Hi There ladies,
Sorry that I have been MIA its been a hectic couple of weeks first with moving then with forced bed rest and then to get every thing finished at work as I am constantly aware that I could go into labour at any time and work is just coming to an end

Mrs TL sorry I missed your post yesterday. YIPPPEEE for leave I am very jealous. oh and less than a month to go!!!!!! So excited for you to meet Maria. I started to swell quiet early on and have had to move form a size 6 to an 8 so I share your frustration. But at least when on leave you can either go bare foot or slacks
Izzels so excited for your family X-mas that sounds really great!! You must enjoy every moment of it!!!
Hi Nicfish, welcome to the group!!! I agree with Izzels don't worry to much about the weight your doc will tell you if you should worry.
how was your 4D yesterday?? They truly are amazing and I couldn't believe that the cutie on the screen is actually living and growing inside my tummy was very serial but loved every second
Janiene, I am so glad that your Glucose if fine!!! That is a huge relief. Enjoy sneaking the odd chokkie over the festive season oh and I love your belly pic that is really cute!!!!
Hi Marely, how are things your side? how was your scan last week? What position is baby in now?
AFM: I had a scan again last week Friday and the girls had gain 300g EACH in one week so that is a Wapping 600g gain in 7 days!!!!!! they each weighed around 1.6kg at 30 weeks. The doc said that that is big even if this was singleton babies. the week before at 29 weeks I had a detailed Doppler scan and they measured my cervix which at that point was still normal for the stage of pregnancy that I am in thus the doc said last week that my body is not showing starting signals for labour thus he does not think I will go into labour over Christmas New Year time. He did warn me not to count it out as with the weight of the babies the space might run out and my water my rupture even if my cervix has not started to thin out.
He said that he would very much like to get me to 2.2-2.4kg for each baby and then he will be happy. The practice closes until the 6th of Jan ( luckily the doc is on call if I need him urgently ) so I wont have another scan until the 6th. At the current rate of growth we def think the babies will reach goal weight by the 6th of Jan. At that point I will be just short of 34 weeks. The Doc said that he will see me on the 6th of my water does not brake before then and then we will asses the situation and take it day by day from there. I did get the impression that if the babies are goal weight by the 6th he will schedule my C-section for that week. Me and hubby where talking and said if he does not schedule it ( and if the babies are goal weight ) that we will request it. I know that sounds terrible and selfish but to be honest my body is taking ALOT of stain, every movement is difficult and some times even painful. Breathing is also really hard to do, so I just don't know if I can push it any longer than the then

Sorry for sounding a bit negative.
I hope that you are all great and looking forward to wonderful festive season filled with family, friends love and lots of new memories.
