I would guess a few days early and a baby well over 9 pounds, but now I'm on meds (Glyburide) to help control my blood sugar so I might not have such a big baby after all! I guess only time will tell.

I'm guessing 14th October, 7lbs 8oz.
For some reason I've had the 5th of October in my head for ages, but I think that's just my wishful thinking. I went 5 days over on DS1, 4 days over on DS2, so I'm guessing 3 days over on this one.
I have no idea what size the baby is, I'm measuring average, I haven't had any scans recently. My boys were 7lbs 10oz and 7lbs 15oz, so I'm guessing this baby will be 7lbs something.

If he comes when DS2 wants, 13th of October (thats his 6th birthday) and around the 8lb mark.
If I go by my feeling of him liking to make me wait, October 30th and 9.5-10lb (weight guesses based on his estimate weight at previous scan and other boys weights at the gestation they were born LOL)
I now need to buy 3 things. Some cheap big knickers that can be chucked if need be. A special teddy of his own for the baby. Some water proof sheeting/shower curtain, from the £1 shop will do, to be put down for the home birth. Everything else has arrived, unless I see some more cute clothes or discover I need to top up some clothes when DH gets them down. He told me today his going to wait till the others are back at school which wont be till the 5th. I'm itching to get started on them!Feb 2006

My baby is expected october 4 but since im at bedrest for the moment because of a bleeding it could be earlier the doctor said. Im not bleeding anymore though and im taking medicines to make him stay in there longer
Im in week 35 now, if he would be born soon, he would be ok , wouldnt he? Anyone had a baby too early?He has a pretty good weight, about 2300-400g.

In the weekly updates thing I get, last week (week 32 for me) it said over 90% of babies born at that gestation survived. 35 weeks is just short of what they class as term, so I think other than a little trouble breathing (which he may not even have that) he'd be ok.

Hopefully he will hold on at least long enough to be healthy and come home straight away.

Its September, our babies will be here next month!!!! Maybe even the end of this month for some of us!
How exciting is that? I've also just ordered the very last things I need for the baby. So unless I see something really cute, I am done!
Just got to clean things, wash things, and pack things now.Feb 2006

First I want to say sorry to hear you are going through this
. I have known a few people who had preemies (if you were to meet their kids today you would never know as they are healthy and happy) and researched quite a bit this time (because of my cyst it increases odds). At 35 weeks babies have all their organs formed and everything is maturing at this point. The one thing that tends to be common but not always necessary would be cpap (breathing tube) and at this point, the baby would probably not need it for long. With the medicine and bed rest it really sounds like your dr knows what they're doing and hopefully given you more peace of mind.
