Yeh let me know how you get on. I have a scan in two weeks at 36 weeks and the midwife said we’ll make a plan then so it’ll be interesting to see what they advise you. I feel like I’ll be okay with a caesarean as long as I have the time to get my head around the idea!

Yeah my midwife said at 31 weeks that I’ll have a scan at 36 weeks then at my last appointment (34 weeks) she was like I’ll see you again at 36 and then get you a scan so it’s been another wait for a scan. Feel like it’s getting closer and closer to the end with things still up in the air but hopefully on Thursday the ball will get rolling.
I’ve kind of got my head around the caesarean idea now cause he’s been breech for so long. I think if he suddenly turns I’d have to get my head back around to the idea of experiencing a normal birth and waiting for him to decide when to come rather than everything being booked in.
But yeah I’ll keep you updated!
Yayyy a new thread!! Excited for all the babies born this thread 
I’ve not kept up recently missed all the tv chat my fave! Somehow managed to get a promotion at work so felt like I should actually start doing a bit of work!
For tv chat does anyone know where I could stream bad girls and footballers wives? I really want to re watch while on maternity!
absolute classics

Absolute best of British tv but they're not on there. I might have to finally work out how my partners illegal streaming thing works
I stream everything from movies 123… and I just cast it to the tv.. it has absolutely everything and this is to my detrimentAbsolute best of British tv but they're not on there. I might have to finally work out how my partners illegal streaming thing works
Growth scan today, baby has decided centiles mean nothing to them 
Measuring off the 97th centile... Currently 27+4 but measuring over 29 weeks and they weigh 3.2lb rather than the estimated 1.9lb...!
Gotta go for the glucose tolerance blood test on Friday to rule out gestational diabetes. The midwife said she's not concerned, it could be a growth spurt and they may level off again... But jeez!
What a chunk!
Anyone else experienced similar? I'm only small and worried about potentially squeezing a chunker out now

We had a gender scan both times - with my son we took my mum and my gran (who was so overwhelmed as she’d never been to an ultrasound in her life despite having 3!) and with our current it was just my husband and me, and we bought some cannons for my son to let off with my grandparents who were watching him and then my parents.
I loved both - but the look on my gran’s face after finding out we’re having a girl was the best. First girl in the family for 30 years!

I feel exactly the same. I’m fine with whatever is the safest option but struggle with the idea of getting my head around one thing and then having a change of plan. I’m someone who likes a plan so I can be organised…having to learn to get used to the fact babies do not work like that
Awww this has made me teary! I love that you brought your gran!!
Love the poll at the top, so many of you in the third trimester 
I love hearing the baby stories once they are here.
I’m just overthinking and thinking way ahead, but what happens with the birth plan? Do you discuss this with the midwife? I thought I’d want to give natural birth a go, but if any intervention was needed I’d want a c-section, does anyone know if this is possible? Seen a few people commenting saying they are quite reluctant to do sections and I’m a worrier!

That sounds so lovely
My gran is the total opposite to this! When I said I was finding out the gender she couldn’t figure out why I would do such a thing and I have got the “in my day” speech about 100 times to the point that it frustrates the life out of me 
this is so lush, sounds like such a special moment with your nan! Me and my nan have been incredibly close all of my life but now she’s in a care home with very advanced dementia, I can’t wait to tell her though as I know she will be really excited
I don’t understand how you can have specifically British tv on there but not have Footballers Wives and Bad Girls! They’re so iconic and the first adult shows my mum let me watch at the age of like 10Absolute best of British tv but they're not on there.

You are exactly the same as me. It’s gonna be an adjustment for us isn’t it. Can’t control pregnancy and babies unfortunately! I’m trying to keep my mind open to the fact that he could turn so I’m not struggling if it does happen but I’m not sure I’ve been successful. I’m a lot more relaxed about everything than I might once have been though and I’m worrying less so I consider myself doing quite well. Not long to goI feel exactly the same.

Gender reveals aren’t for me, we’re not finding out anyway but I definitely wouldn’t have had one. I might have done a homemade cake to surprise grandparents or something but definitely no party. I find it cringe when the reaction is sooo strong for one or the other (it you’re going to be *that* deflated looking at pink confetti maybe don’t film it for your daughter to watch in years to come!).
Just bought my first bottle of Gaviscon, joyful x

You can put whatever you like on your birth plan. But make sure you take it with you!Love the poll at the top, so many of you in the third trimester

From my experience, nobody will know your birth plan unless you take the paper with you and get whatever midwife is in charge to read it first
Awww this has made me teary! I love that you brought your gran!!
Thanks ladiesthis is so lush, sounds like such a special moment with your nan! Me and my nan have been incredibly close all of my life but now she’s in a care home with very advanced dementia, I can’t wait to tell her though as I know she will be really excited
My gran is like a second mother to me, so it was a no brainier to have her come along I feel so lucky at my age to have both my grandparents so I do as much as I can with them!Oh gosh! My other Nan was abit perplexed at why we wanted to find out but my husbands grandad was the worst. He was like ‘better hope it’s a girl!’ And my husband was like why? It makes no different to us not everyone is set on having one of each we’d equally be happy with two boysThat sounds so lovely
The in my day speech is the worst - they make you feel guilty for having access to modern day medicine and being able to check things like it’s done to spite them
Mine and my husband friend organised a baby shower at his work; she’s his manager and invited us both. I didn’t want to go as i hate being centre of attention (my friend totally got it!) so my husband had an amazing time. I have some amazing pictures of him with a baby sash on playing games! He’s such a Leo, haha!
thats absolutely wonderful! My girl is the first on my husbands side in nearly 4 generations, and I’m the only daughter and granddaughter. my Grandpa is so pleased!
