Scared of having mammoth baby!

Hi đź‘‹ I'm coming up 36 weeks and totally paranoid that I'm going to have a huge baby! This is baby number 2, my 1st was a cute 7lbs but this time around I feel so different. I haven't been eating as well as I was with my first (which I'm feeling very guilty about), I also am a bit bigger this time around. Movements are also a lot more noticeable with this one and I feel like baby is running out of space which I never had the feeling of first time around. My MW says I am measuring just below the 50th percentile, but I know how inaccurate these measurements can be! Has anyone requested a growth scan and been able to get one, I know these also aren't overly accurate but might make me feel more at ease!?

I feel exactly the same! It's my second too I fell pregnant again when she was 9 months old and I think its because tummy muscles arnt as tight and everything is a bit looser compared to last time.. we also know what is yet to come so maybe more fear as we know more this time xx

@Lozzy glad to hear I'm not the only one, although there's almost a 4 year gap between mine! X

21 month gap between my pregnancies. This baby if anything is measuring smaller and is girl vs boy. She feels so much heavier and my bump feels so much bigger. Think it depends on hope they are lying. Xxx
