27 weeks tomorrow - midwife update

Well I had my 27 week appointment this morning. I've been swelling and in quite alot of pain the last 3 days in my legs and feet - so we're watching that, but the swelling is not enough to be concerned about. I've put on about 7kgs so far in this pregnancy, feels like 100kgs - think only cos my feet are taking serious strain lol

Baby is breech, and because of my teeny uterus we have to start turning it now before he/she gets too comfy. So we're doing baby turning exercises, the torch thing, taking pulsitilla and also seeing the homoeopath tomorrow. There's lots of amniotic fluid so there's enough space still to turn.

Otherwise tonight's our second last ante-natal class. I've loved them even more the second time around, and J really enjoys them!

Otherwise all still on track for a water birth at Genesis, really looking forward to it! Time is going so quickly now, I have a feeling baby will be here before we know it.

Midwife reckons it's a girl still, this week I'm "feeling" like it's a boy though. :)

I now see the midwife every 2 weeks! Thanks for reading :D

Here's a pic of the bump - sorry it's from my cell
