Nothing really wrong, I'm 35 weeks with dc2- very much wanted and waited for. He is a boy which we are thrilled about but can't find a name for the life of us. He is also big according to the scan and today midwife told me he is transcerse( certainly feels it) but didn't seem to Think there was anything more to say about it but from reading on here it seems to be quite a problem.
I'm on holiday now so trying to get bits ready but feel unprepared and I'm worried it will get complicated with his size and position.

All silly I know and not big issues but I can't sleep.
Added to that I'm insanely paranoid about something happening to my dd1, to the point I can barely bear to be away from her (usually work full time so this is odd). I know it is irrational but I think of things that could happen and within minutes i can be in tears. News stuff about kids just kills me.
Sorry for rant. Just needed to put it all down in the hope it will let me sleep

Hi, it sounds like you have lots zipping about in your head. No wonder you are restless. You'll see the MW soon, could you make a list of questions so your not constantly mulling it over and feel more prepared?
Hope all goes well.

Dude, you're a few weeks away from bringing a new life into the world.

It's ok to be a bit emotional.

Best of British with it all.

Thanks all for the lovely replies. Saw the doctor yesterday who said 'well seeing as baby is transverse we would like to admit you tomorrow for the rest of your pregnancy'. I managed not to burst into tears and then he said he should just check where baby was and thank goodness he has moved round since the scan the day before and is now head down.
I felt like I needed a stiff drink! But now that little drama is over I am manically tidying /sorting/ shopping so that we are ready (I thought I had ages as dd1) was so late but it seems prudent to get my act in gear now
Thanks for the names Stom- I love 3 of those, now just to convince dp.

Well i hope the birth goes well. I can't wait for December I'm having a Lil girl will be my first. .. Good luck and I hope to manage to find a name! Xxx

Glad to hear all is well OP but wondered why the baby being transverse would make them want to admit you? Mine is currently transverse too (only 30 weeks so still time to turn) and I thought the only implication was that I'd need a planned section if it doesn't turn...

Lots of name ideas over on the baby names board too if you haven't chosen one yet!

As far as names go, my friends took two weeks to name their little one. I think they just wanted to meet him first.So don't panic over names just yet.

Good luck with it all.
