Thanks ladies I am sure everything is fine, but I am constantly worrying because I didn't have any blood tests or amnio or any type of testing for abnormalities other than normal ultrasounds, so I am constantly worrying something is wrong and that she will have downs or something. Its probably because with all my other babies, I had the blood tests done and knew everything was ok. This time around they only offered the Maternyt21 but my insurance wouldn't pay for it because I am under 35, we didn't have $500 for a blood test so we didn't do it.

They don't do NT blood work? I get it done at 12 and again at 16 weeks... I skipped the 16 week one this time...

I have gained 40 flipping pounds! And that's with not gaining anything for the first three months! Lol I honestly don't know where I'm packing it cause I can't really tell... Must be in my ass and thighs... Which is the hardest place to lose :(
-
nope, the only blood they have taken from me was for my blood glucose test. I have No IDEA if she is healthy or not. I just have a sinking feeling that something isn't right, but it might just be because I have no idea this time. I have gained 25 lbs and still have 7.5 weeks to go so if I actually start gaining weight again, my guess is I'll get to around 40! WAG I cannot believe how close you are to having your little man! I am still so so so far away....52 more days!

I think everything is going to be fine with her thorz... Try not to worry yourself
I know! 26 more sleeps at most it's insane! Times been going so fast for me!
-
Thorz no one in uk has bloods done unless there is history of issues or something shows on a scan don't stress sure she's fine!
I havn't put on much last few weeks (I have put on loads so far!) think end 2nd trimester is a big growth spurt so probably not a issue
Thorz divas right babies will stuck you dry for what they need sure she's fine and dandy xxx

Sounds like exciting times for you ladylaura!
I still have 3 sick kids on antibiotics. 2 with pneumonia and 1 with a shocking ear infection (which actually resulted in a ruptured eardrum in one ear) but they seem to have turned the corner so hopefully the ab's are working!!
Wag you don't have long!! All being well, if bubs is looking ready I'll be induced on the 30th of aug. so exactly 4 wks today I'll be at the hospital probably getting the gel put in as we speak!! 28 more sleeps for me!! Soooooo excited!
I just cannot wait to see her little face and see what she looks like, and to hold her..... I'm usually sad at this point in pregnancy as it all comes to an end, but I'm sooooooo ready for her to come I just want her out!! Lol I'm finding my day to day jobs very tedious and boring as I'm on constant count down. I count down everything.... Only 4 more times to go swimming lessons, only 4 more dancing lessons and so on!! Haha I tell you, it's actually making the time go slower but I can't help myself!! Haha

Thorz, I'd try not to worry until a definite issue has been noted on a scan. Which is easier said than done, I know, but bump size is such a variable thing.

Well I went and bought some dates... They look terrible they taste alright.. I'm not a fan of the texture...but I'm gonna suck it up and eat six a day like in the study :)
