Carla - you should check out the yummy slummy mummy club on the parent thread We're all the same, if we're not going out we get dress no earlier than 2pm and just put our hair up in a pony

Skinty - sympotms of pre-eclampsia (but I'm sure you are fine!!)

• severe headaches,
• vision problems, such as blurring or seeing flashing lights before your eyes,

I don't read for a couple of days and then I log on for news on MrsTine or Krystal or Candice and instead I find Elle_gee's news! Such a queue jumper - shouldn't be allowed

She was due one week before me and I am soooo not ready to give birth right now! Good weight for a such a prem baby though. Wishing you and little Rhys well....

Sami - I don;t have any symptoms like that at all. I don;t think it's pre-eclampsia, I really do think it is just a small baby cos we are both from small families, but he worried me and I don;t need it!

He also put on my notes SFD? does anyone know what that might stand for?

Oh, and he also put COPL? but I know that means he thinks baby is head down which is a good thing!

EDIt - I just found it means small for dates.

Skinty, I'm so cross at your Dr! There's really no way he can guess the size of the baby just by a feel! He shouldn't of let you leave feeling so worried... If your midwife has been happy with your progress so far then I would take what he said with a pinch of salt... I'm the opposite of you, I know we grow big babies in our family which is why I was happy to decline extra scans, they won't tell me anything I don't know all ready...

I came upstairs for a nap, 3 people have text me and the postman bought my pram raincover... Now I'm hungry! Might aswell get up and get dressed...

Krystal, I know what you're saying but I have way more faith in my Gp than I do in my MW! I'd rather he raised it as a potential issue than ignored it, but I do wish he'd sent me for a scan or maybe explained things a bit more.

I usually am very vocal but when I get into the surgery I get all overwhelmed and clam up
