Hi
My first was born at 35 weeks, I'm currently 32 weeks and have seen the fetal medicine doctor at 22 weeks and he said he wasn't concerned. All I've had since is a growth scan at 28 weeks and another scheduled for 36. There was no reason for my first being early so am I right to think that there's a real possibility of this one turning up early too?

My first came at 35 weeks too- nobody could give any real reason why. Second came at 39! I felt like a hippo by then as I just wasn't at all used to being so far along!
Fingers crossed you make it to full term this time.

Thanks @WineAt4pm - I can't imagine being pregnant for potentially for another 5 weeks +, I already feel like a hippo lol

My Ds was born at 34+5 with me saying hed be early all along, same with DD who was born at 35+1, 8 days after a negative fFn test! I have a bicornuate uterus which is probably the main reason i got to the same point with both x

Hi @Sleepycat91 - what's a Fn test??? I saw the midwife on Tuesday and she's saying she doesn't think this one will be early but I haven't had any tests of any description?
