Due June 27

Anyone else due around that week? I'm 22 weeks pregnant. My baby girl is growing at a pace that's 5 days ahead of schedule. EDD on her growing is June 22, but they don't usually move the date up unless the baby is over 7 days at growth pace. I'll be induced due to being high risk (5 autoimmune diseases). Anyone else high risk?

Great to hear everything is going great now.
Ive had bleeding from the begining through to week 16 but now at 24 weeks i havnt seen anymore of that thank god..
Im worried this time as with my last labour i had alot of trouble with my cervix dialating to the full 10 cm and i only got to about 6.The midwifes had to get their hands in and strech it past my DD head because she was already to far along the birth canal to get a C section.
so im hoping this time it gets to the full 10 cm and i wont need them to do it again.. IT HURT SO MUCH.. lol

Being proactive is the best solution. A week from today, I'll be 24 weeks and get to see my baby girl by ultrasound again. Yay! Can't wait. Have y'all been able to get your ultrasounds on disk? My doctor records the entire thing so I can take it home and watch it. I think it's the coolest thing ever! It's also great for grandmother's who wished they could have been there. I love when she grabs her knees and feet. She is a finger sucker, too.

Today, I am starving! The only downer is that today and yesterday, I feel like I have a lump in my throat and a little nauseated. I am eating just fine, but still hungry after I eat. I am like "baby girl, I gotta draw the line somewhere". Lol.

Around 18 weeks I had to go into L&D for contractions. Scariest thing ever. They were able to stop them with fluids and some medication that I can't remember but I'm on bed rest for the rest of the pregnancy. Right now I'm going in every four weeks and in a few weeks they want to take a look at my pelvis to see how much I might be able to handle. I'm 4'9", have a narrow pelvic opening and had my hip broken and pinned back together when I was 16 so there are a lot of factors pointing to the need for a c-section.

As much as a vaginal birth would be preferable I stand by the idea that if the word "emergency" is anywhere in my paperwork my doctor has failed me. So, we're trying to determine the risks ahead of time rather than waiting to see if my little girl gets stuck.

Nice to meet y'all :) I'm not sure if I'll have to have a C-section either. My dr wants to wait closer to the time I'm due before she determines this. Right now, they're having me go in every four weeks. Closer to due date, I may have to be seen once every two weeks. Have y'all had any complications? I had to go into labor & delivery one evening to be monitored. I was dizzy all day. Turns out, it was just vertigo & baby was fine. I had a tough time during the 1st trimester. I was nauseated all the time & my appetite was void. A couple weeks into my second trimester, things got a lot better. Now, I can eat almost anything. My appetite is large, but I try to watch it so I don't gain more than I'm supposed to. :) I can't believe our babies are supposed to be doubling in size within the next couple of weeks. My baby girl weighed in at 15 oz. at 20 wks. I go in for another sono in a week & a half at 24 wks. Can't wait!

Due the 16th of June and I'm high risk as well. We're still trying to decide if a c-section is going to be necessary or not.
