Hi ladies

im 34 weeks pg with dc 3. my first & second labours were both lovely, no problems all straight forward...first was 10 hrs in total and 2nd was 3/4 hrs. But this time im really really dreading it. I keep thinking this birth will be the one that is traumatic. I hve been told that bubs is on the big side and my midwife just said in passing at my last appoin tment would iconsidera section....so this has left me a bit nervy about what might happen ie baby getting stuck or shoulder distioca so just looking for some birth stories to help me ease the nerves if you dont mind. Thanks ladies. Frankly:-)

Hi I've only had 1 baby 18 months ago & was told he was at least 10Ibs & they were gonna possibly induce me/possibly csec but he came 1 week early & was only 8Ibs...so they were totally wrong & everything was fine ;)
You have to think positive...your body knows what to do! They also say that your body will only produce a baby that it can handle size wise but don't know how true that is? All the best ;)
