Moonbeam even I thought monitoring is only done if your baby is not moving enough, but I guess different doctors do things differently! As long as you and baby are doing well that's all that matters! Lucy good to hear you and baby are doing well :) All of us are playing the waiting game now! All the best! Tanya

Hi All, Week 38 ends for me today and still no sign of baby! Few more weeks I guess :) Moonbeam why the foetal monitoring? I have been going for my checks every 10 days to 2 weeks after week 35 but the only thing my doc does is a scan to see heartbeat etc...is there any specific reason for this monitoring? I have my next appointment on Sunday...lets see what doc has to say! I also wanted to know what you ladies think of getting one of those electric swings for the baby? Has anyone bought it? Am considering getting one so any thoughts appreciated! Cheers! Tanya

Hello Ladies, Wow looks like a lot has been happening with all of us getting closer to our due dates! Lucy 111 I also had another internal exam day before at 37 weeks and even I am 1 cm dilated! Baby is doing fine but she is still high up and head is not yet engaged so some more days to go before she arrives!! Not too thrilled to hear about this CGT monitoring though...which hospital are you going to? I have not been told about any of this at all so am a little concerned as I wouldn't want to be on my back the entire time! Moonbeam good to hear everything is going well with you and baby...it can be very disconcerting to hear anything negative at this stage! All the best to us all and hope everyone does fine and has a great delivery and a healthy baby :) Tanya

Wow moonbeam! Am so impressed ur gonna be working all the way through! I wasn't planning on going on leave for atleast 2 more weeks but have developed a nasty case of SPD and have been in horrid pain for the last 2 weeks now...so decided to pre-pone and put my feet up! My doc also said she wont change the date from May 5th but said be prepared any time after April 21st :) I packed my hospital bag yesterday!! Getting excited and apprehensive at the same time so I totally know what you mean Moonbeam! You're having a little girl too? It was such fun shopping for my little one :) I have another check on this thursday...gonna be finishing 37 weeks! Cannot wait! Can u tell me more about this birth package, how much is it cost wise? Is it at city? I will be delivering there..my doc has already sent the papers but should I go now and sign up for this package as well? Would appreciate the help :)

Hello Ladies! Hows everyone doing? Am almost 37 weeks now and moonbeam I know what you mean about the nervousness and how time has flown! Lucy I had an internal exam at Dubai Mall Medical Center at 35 weeks...had a swab to check for any nasty infections..dont have any! And the doc mentioned around this time they need to check how the cervix is coz any sign of dilation can mean labour is close...nothing to worry about and I haven't had any discomfort or any change after the exam...so don't worry! All the best to everyone! Tanya
