    Sezjem - I would definitely mention it to him - if for no other reason than to put your mind at rest a little bit. he will know if it's relevant to the BP etc or not.

    Re your fundal measurement - don't fret. I am still measuring 2 cms less (I am 36 weeks and at 34cms) and my OB is not worried about it at all. I will probably catch up by the very end anyway.

    Try not to worry and don't think you are doing anything wrong! I would just talk to him about your concerns - after all, that's what he's there for and why they are paid the big bucks.

    Good luck and try to rest your mind a bit....

    I'm feeling a bit better now, think I was just panicking a little bit....pg hormones and all!

    I wouldn't be worried if I was just measuring behind, it's the lack of growth that concerns me.

    Michelle, the white spots don't last for long, maybe 30 seconds? I haven't had a headache for about 2 weeks, when I get them they're pretty shocking, but it's not all the time. Don't really get any swelling, just a tiny bit on my ankles when it's hot and I've been doing alot.

    I know how you feel. At 36 weeks I was told bub was measuring 31 weeks!!! This is after she had measured 33 weeks at previous appointment, so I was SO worried. Had u/s the next day and all was fine, she was 36 after all and for some reason she just measured alot less at that particular appointment. So I would say don't worry, but get checked for peace of mind.xo
