Tuesday or Wednesday is "the" day

We went to see my obstetrician this morning to plan about the birth, and i'm booked in to be admitted in the hospital for Monday night this week for an induction of labour, so our baby could come either Tuesday or early Wednesday depending on how long the labour is gonna be, I hope and pray that all goes well and smoothly, I'm kinda scared and nervous, this is my first so i dont know what to expect..but i have faith that i'm being watched and looked after by a great team of Doctors, nurses and midwives, plus i know that My Heavenly Father is watching over me and baby.. so i will leave it all to His great hands,  and all will be done according to His will..

Growth Scan result today

well, our baby has grown heaps since the last scan almost 5 weeks ago, he doubled his weight since, i burst into tears when the sonographer told me that he's now weighing a whopping 8lbs 11ozs already (3.946kg), i'm getting worried about how to push him out i hope we'll be both okay, but aside from his weight everything is normal, heart action is present, presentation is cephalic (head down). Amniotic fluid: volume is normal, Placenta: position is anterior, not low, structure is normal, a limited fetal morphology assessment did not reveal any abnormality, fluid is seen in the fetal stomach and bladder.

Summary of ultrasound findings: Growth progressing on the 90th centile.

Conclusion: Large for gestational age.

In 4 days time i'm going back to see the obstretician and we'll start planning about the birth, so i hope baby comes out at the end of this week or early next week... I hope i can last till then..but my main concern is my baby, i feel like he's super cramped up in there, i feel so sorry for him, i'm only small so he doesnt really have anymore room in my tummy to grow..I think he wants to be out very soon, i dont want him traumatized, all i want is a healthy and a safe delivery, anyway i'll let you all know on Thursday.

signing out..
