Meh, they said the same to me also. My baby is big, I am measuring 42cm and midwife said it should be back around 36cm ish by now. Everyone that feels my tummy in hospital says 'wow, big baby' and I was told to expect to come around 36 weeks. then I was told I"d be induced by the end of this week due to high BP, and now I'm not as I saw a different doctor who puts me on BP medication instead. argh. I know it's better for bubs not to be induced though if BP is under control.
But here I am, no sign of anything happening soon, and I look like a whale...literally. I can barely move because my stomach ligaments and skin hurt so badly just from lying down and sitting, let alone walking around. I'm so sick of hearing "are you having twins?"
I wish they wouldn't say anything about when they thought babies would come, it would help more in the long run. Also I wish I was stopped being told I'm having a big baby, it scares me when they say that. They asked how big my biggest was, I said 8 and a half pound, and the doctor said to expect that this baby could be a good deal bigger than that. Nice thoughts about pushing that out, hey. I'm just trying to thinking calming thoughts and not stress about it because that will hold it up.
