today's scan

Well, baby is head down... yeah!!  She weighs approximately 5.7 pounds and has lovely hair, you could see it all fluffy like a chick!  Her feet are under my left lung so maybe that's why it's getting increasingly hard to breathe.  I am discharged from the hospital now and only have to see my midwife.  Although they have set an appt for after the birthdate as I usually go over term.  I feel so much happier now and just pray everything carries on going good and I have a healthy baby!!

Zephyr is also head down and I am so happy about that one less thing off my mind and no other health concerns because there is only 1 tiny cyst left in her brain and they say there is nothing to worry about now. so I am so happy. I am at 31 weeks and am wondering if it is normal to JUST have your glucose test??

krushing, this is my fifth but I lost the last baby at 20 wks, so I worry about everything this time, whereas before I never gave anything a second thought.  The doc said this baby will be 8.7 - 9 pounds, so it's bigish but not over big!  Thanks ladies for all the replies and positive vibes!!

I'm happy she's healthy!  Is th is your first child...can't remember?  I need to sit back and just be thankful Reece is healthy and forget how big he is/will be.  I'm going to feel really stupid if I worried all this time and he's not big at delivery!  But, he's my first and so I'm a newbie!!!
