Head Engaged?

[Gem1355]

Hi

I'm 33 weeks and told my babys head is 2/5 nearly 3/5 engaged how far down is that?

Gem - Natalhypnotherapy do a "preparation for birth" CD which I have been listening to regularly - I always end up dozing off while I listen to it, it's that relaxing! It only lasts 30 mins so doesn't take much time out of your day - anyway, what's more important than spending time looking after yourself at this stage of pregnancy? Make the most of relaxation time now as it will be in short supply once the baby arrives .
Oh - their website is here

Oh - pupuce! Great minds and all that!

I think i'll be less busy when i give up work, but it's hard getting everything prepared for when baby arrives, looking for somewhere to live, etc

This is probably the reason my BP is high! also arguing with daddy doesn't help gets me even more stressed out!

thanks for the site will look into that!

Gem, please don't wish your baby here too early. My dd was just under 36 weeks and that was bad enough (and she wasn't in SCBU). Just enjoy the lst few weeks of peace and quiet, your baby will be here when s/he is ready.

Just ordered the preparation for birth CD, will listen when i go to bed at nite.

Great minds think alike!

Now Gem - that is a POSITIVE step forward!

I feel relaxed just sitting here!

With a nice cup of tea and some chocolate!

please don't wish the baby out, it might happen and SCBU isn't a nice place, you have no control over your baby, like I said Dd1 was 31 weeks (3lb 12) and DD2 was 33 weeks (3lb 8oz) and I had to watch Dd1 struggle to survive. Ds was a 35 weeker and I came home with him, but DDs had to stay in hospital for 3 and 5 weeks, I hated every minute of them being in there and coming home without a baby is heartbreaking, even though you can go and see them whenever you want. DD1 was supposed to come home after 3 weeks, but she had a lots of breathing dips and Bardios and had to stay longer, even time they said she could come home, and didn't I cried!

I think i need to relax, would love to relax on beach in a really hot country with a cocktail in one hand and gorgeous looking man in the other!
Well till baby girl arrives!

I don't think it helped having the ruck with daddy!

But i'm sure i'll feel better in the morning
