I have some good news and some will not bad new but it scared me a little news so the good first I gained weight this week only a pound but that brings my total to 10 pounds and I'm very happy about that now I have only six pounds to go before I'm at the weight I started this whole pregnancy at and I'm trying my best to get there!!! Now the kinda of scary news when my doctor did her measurement of my belly she made a little face and I go what's wrong am I not measuring right and she goes will not really and I tell her that not shocking to me because I have been having such a hard time with the weight lost and then trying to gain that's why I never ask about the measurement so I asked her how far off I was and she told me that she didn't want to tell me because all I would do is worry so I promised not to worry and that's when she told me I was so shocked to find out that instead of measuring at 32 weeks I'm at 36 weeks I was so so so shocked and I have only gain one pound in two weeks so my doctor doesn't think it's weight gain she told me not to worry it may be the way the baby is laying then we talk about the cramping and she asked did I want to be check I was unsure she ask was a cramping right then and I wasn't so she said that it could wait if I wanted because it would hurt so I wanted to wait until my next appointment or until I really really need to be checked so we went over what to do if my water breaks or if I'm cramping really bad and she told me to call if I have spotting with or without the cramping I knew that my due date was off a little because every time I go the baby is bigger then where I should be and plus I got pregnant right after I lost my last baby I never had a period but I never dreamed it was that far off I was thinking a week or maybe a week and a half so I was told to stay off of me feet keeping them up as much as possible so that is what I'm going to do until she come when ever that may be have a great weekend everyone !!!

I\'m sorry you\'re having a rough time. I\'m sure all will be well. When they did the sonogram didn\'t they give you a due date?? I had pre-term labor contractions with both my kids. With Alaina they started at 33 weeks everything was fine the dr kept me in work as long as I stayed off my feet and I had her almost a week late and had to be induced. With Nicholas they started at 28 weeks and the dr pulled me out of work but again nothing happened until I went for my scheduled c-section at 39 weeks so I know from experience. Some of us just have irritable uteruses. Hugs, love and Merry Christmas to you and the big pumpkin, Angelique
So, I\'m confused... Are you at 36 weeks? Or, are you just measuring bigger? Could it be twins? (My aunt measured big and was shocked to have twins when she went into labor- they never saw or heard the second baby)
Or, could it be that you have gestational diabetes (common for women with PCOS), which is causing the baby to be bigger?
I\'m lost on this one! LOL!
Well, whatever the case may be, if your doctor wasn\'t extremely concerned, don\'t worry too much.
