Saw midwife yesterday and mentioned that my bump feels huge, so she measured it and it came out at 30cm, she said that it should measure the same as the weeks you are, ie 28. I asked if it meant a big baby and she just shrugged.
Up until 21 weeks no one had noticed I was preggers, and suddenly 7 weeks later I am massive, well not me, the bump.
Has anyone else had this and does it definitely mean a big baby? I had a hideous medicalised birth with my DD (plus she was only 6lbs 6oz) so was hoping for as natural as possible experience this time, but now am in a tiz thinking this baby is going to be big and I will have a nightmare time again.
Sorry for panicky tone of post, but I've still got 12 weeks of baby growing time, if it carries on like this I'll be house bound soon!
