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..

Irene, don't panic too much, those growth scans can be off by anwhere up to 10 percent - Ariana's had her weighing only 840 grams at our scan two days before she was born, and she weighed in at 1.2kilos - and way longer than anyone expected. You'll be fine, you have great doctors and God's looking out for you :) can't wait to hear he has arrived safely for you, i'm very excited for you both. Take care xox
that's what i'm hoping Tam, i got so scared becausei'm not sure what to do when i'm there..but you're right, it's only an estimated weight afterall:) i should have more faith and leave it to Him:) thanks so much again, i hope that you're all good..xox
