OK I'm back... I had a joke that I had the countdown to giving birth calendar stick to my toilet seat lid, as that's what I saw all the time during pregnancy... Saying this however... I was hungry, so as I couldn't stand the smell of any food being prepared, or any cafe areas etc, my husband would send me outside to wait whilst he cooked, I'd rush in and start eating or if felt really nauseous, we'd eat outside... This did work... Checking blood was continual and drinking small sips of hot chocolate too keep blood up also worked... My midwife claimed I was carrying a large baby... Due to my diabetes... I gave birth to a lovely boy weighing 4lb 6oz....they then told me when carrying my daughter, that I should be very aware of having a large baby... She was delivered weighing 8lb 12...I was pleased to have medical assistance, but also believe in yourself and how you are feeling.... A calm mother to be is far more beneficial than stressed one... Enjoy this time and looking forward to your wonderful new babies arrival..
