Short update: near the end now yippee! baby weighing approx 6 1/2lbs on scan at 34 weeks though so looks like might be having a whopper!
Had a diabetes test and unfortunately levels were slightly raised so am off sugar and starchy carbs to try and get levels back to normal. Hopefully this will calm down my weight gain too.
Had to be monitored for high blood pressure too but managed to get that to come down (think I was just extra stressed on the day).
Swelling in feet and ankles is up everyday now, but luckily still no protein in samples, so is just one of those pregnancy things.
Baby is engaged and got to have another scan at 38 weeks to get an idea of her weight then - fingers crossed though that I go into labour at 37 weeks and I can have the water birth of my choice and she isnt too big, otherwise it looks like my options are changing and will be out of my hands.
Oh and am measuring 40 weeks at 34 weeks too!
I am now under the care of the hospital midwives which is a bummer as unless I can get things stabilised I wont be classed as low risk, although last week I was told I could still have the birth of my choice.
I am dreading it enough without having to envisage something I don't want.
---------------------
My family has gained weight alongside of me! So come August 1st we are all getting weighed and starting our weight loss challenge!
Still no new stretchmarks either but my old ones havnt half stretched. I didnt know they could stretch like that! When I lose this weight they will be really crinkled up.
