I had my dd 4 months ago. I should start by saying that I know I am very lucky in that we are both healthy and compared to what a lot of people go through my labour was very straightforward.
But I do still have a few questions. For the final two weeks of the pregnancy my stomach measurement (not sure of the correst technical term) didn't increase at all. The midwife said it was fine as I was still within the normal range, however when dd was born she was 6lb and the midwife said she probably hadnt grown for the last two weeks of the pregnancy. Also I have since read about the hospital being able to look at the placenta to see if there was a problem, but this was not suggested at the time.
I know the important thing is that dd came out on time and is healthy, but I cant help thinking that things could have been different if I had gone overdue. Is there anyway I can ask to see my pregnancy and hospital notes again or discuss them with anyone, or am I being unreasonable seeing as everything turned out okay?
