[erinsmom]

my bump is measuring 42 inches at almost 36 weeks i was this size when i gave birth to my dd2,i feel like im about to explodeits getting very uncomfortable,how about anyone else? oh by the way im 5 foot 2 tall and have only put on 1 stone!!!!!!

hi erinsmom..is this the measurement the midwife has done..or DIY one? has she any comments re the measurements....

the bump will drop soon..and the measurement will reduce a little as 'lightening' occurs.....

you are nearly 36 weeks...so you are on the home straight now...xx

am 35+3 and not sure of measurements but feel huge! hoping ill go early. last time i saw midwife they measured me and said nothin about how big i am. hmm oh and have put on 2 stone!

at 37 weeks or so i measured 42 also, i was referred to consultant who gave me a scan. i have polyhydraminios which is too much amniotic fluid.i'm 40 +3 now still waiting. i was very uncomfortable out of breathe and baby quite high as head was hard to engage due to all the fl

I wouldn't worry too much, I was the same measuring 3wks ahead and have been for past few weeks (I am just over 40wks and 5ft 2, haven't put on much weight just a huge stomach!). Good luck.
