38wk u/s

Monday 05.10.09

So i finally had my "term" scan today to check Xavier's size. Remember he measured about 6lb 6oz @ 34wks. Well i figured he would be at least 8lb at today scan..... i came out shocked.

I dont know the exact measurements of his head, tummy etc but will get the cd of pics tomorrow and will post pics and meaurments then. All she told me was that "his head and tummy measurements are completely off the chart now" and his estimated weight now is 9lb 8oz or 4.2kg (+/-420g).

So the "evil" dr told me 2wks ago that they wont even consider a c section unless he's going to be over 4.5kg - now i wonder if they'll make up their bloody minds!! Im only booked in to see the midwife tomorrow, so will ask about possibly being squeezed into seeing the dr on Thursday - otherwise i'll have to wait til next week when i'm only 6 days shy of my due date to see the dr and get a definite decision!

More waiting still lol and i'm thinking they've cut it a bit fine to be making decisions now.
