Large baby? 😬

Has anyone had any scans that put them above the 97th Centile in the third trimester?

Obviously I know they are only estimates but based on my bump size from my midwife yesterday and the sonographers weight estimation today it puts little lady way above the 97th Centile on her growth chart.

I’m 28 weeks 1 day and they are telling me shes 3lb 8oz, obviously I’m freaking out 😂😭

I am also measuring above but just for his abdomen. I am 31+6 and he is 4lb 8! I do not think they are so accurate though as I have known ladies measuring big babies and they came out at 6-7lb in the end. So I am not going to bother worrying about it or taking any notice of it and just focus on having a calm birth x

Help?

My boyfriend is threatening to end our relationship if our baby isn’t registered with his surname and won’t want on the birth certificate.

Back story, I have two children with their dad’s surname already and also this relationship has been rocky and he always leaves after dramatising things so I feel I have no security.

My question is, should I give them my surname or a double barrelled surname? Or give in and give the baby his surname only?

Can time slow down a little bit...

Anyone else feel like time is just speeding by? This is my second (and last) baby and I just feel like he's getting so big so quick. 😭 This was him at 2 days old Vs now at 26 days old 😭

Bleeding scar

Hey I’m just over 6 weeks PP and noticed that there is a tiny little bit of bleeding suddenly from my scar. The rest looks great and is healing well but this little area a few days ago seemed more raised and red and then today it’s got a bit of discharge and some bleeding. Anyone else had this and know what it could mean?? I’ve got my 6 week check up in two days so hoping to wait until then to get it checked, but any advice or support would be great!

Left Behind on Mother's Day, would you be mad

I'm pregnant and have morning sickness. Was throwing up this morning and taking a while to get ready for church. Today is Mother's Day. My husband had a presentation he had to make at church. He did tell me he had to be at church early, but I took longer because I felt sick. He ended up leaving without me, on Mother's Day. Did not buy me a card, no gifts, nothing! I am mad.
