    Cassius,

    I hope you are 'resting' as much as possible. If your little one is born 'early' I hope all is ok. Will you still be able to have a homebirth?

    Hope your little one stays baking as long as possibe, Can your mw attend if you go early and have a hospital birth? DD1 and DD2 were early, 35+6 and 36+1 so not as early as you are ATM. Their birth stories are in my sig

    I went through group practice and my MW said one of her ladies had her little one at 33.5 weeks and while she was reccommended and accepted telemetry CTG she had an active labour and birthed on a gym mat on the floor with the neonatologist sitting on the floor with her I hope if your bub does arrive early you will have similar support and a short SCN stay for bubs but I hope even more you make it past the 37 week milestone xx

    I had a very active labour with my 35 weeker. It can be done .

    yeah thankfully there is a really good working relationship between my IM and the hospital, so she will be there without a doubt. it was an important factor for us when choosing an IM that a transfer could be done smoothly and with continued support.

    very much so! as long as i dont move it sucks that even sitting up causes tightenings and after like only 10 minutes it comes with the low back-ache and period pain. The most annoying part is just how wearying it all is. I have never had a 'difficult' pregnancy before...so i guess i am simply ticking that box lol.
