Baby being born at 38 weeks

[sunshineonmyshoulder]

Hi everyone,

Due to be sectioned on Friday at exactly 38 weeks. Anybody out there that has had there babies at 38 weeks? Has everything been okay? Has there needed to be a longer stay in hospital?

Was given steroids at 25 weeks to develop her lungs quicker because they thought she was gonna make an early appearance. She is measuring higher on the growth chart too.

Thank you

My DD was born smack on 38 weeks by elective section weighing 6lb 2oz. No problems, I had her on the Monday afternoon and was home by the wednesday afternoon.

DD came at 38 weeks of her own accord, she was 8lbs and had no issues. 38 weeks is full term. Good luck!

Mine both came at 38 weeks, they're cooked by then

@sunshineonmyshoulder I had my, now 6 week, DD at 37+3 by elective section. She was 6lb 12oz, totally perfect and we went home the next day.

Thank you all. Today is the day!!

Hope it went ok - can we get a baby pic?!
