no one seems to be worried about the size lol, and my due date is Saturday with no signs of her coming yet! For a first time mum I am so nervous as to how big this baby is I'm having to push out!
just remembered that my 32 week scan was a bit earlier as there would be no clinic that week. so she was 3lbs 8oz at 30 weeks and then i had another scan at 37 weeks where she was 7lbs 3oz... a bigger baby doesn't mean an easier birth by any means. i went in not wanting an epidural and to deliver as naturally as possible but when it came to it, i was too tired to push and had to have an epidural and a forceps delivery.
exactly. best advice i could give anyone is go into it with an open mind. i wasn't expecting to be in labour for 48 hours (only in active labour for 7 hours) so i was just soooo tired. its exhausting. but then you are presented with a gorgeous baby that you made and brought into the world and its so worth it xx
at the time i would have said a 10 😂 but now, looking back on it, i would do it all over again so it couldn't have been that bad. its all how you handle it mentally i think and i think its worse when its your first as you don't know what to expect. gas and air is amazing btw! i fully recommend it. doesn't take the pain away, but it makes you feel like you're on another planet so you don't give a damn hahaha @trevise xx
