At this stage , it's good to walk about a little more ... It does help for a smoother delivery .
Just make sure ur 'delivery bag ' packed and ready to go .
Go meet ur friends for tea or catch a movie / concert with ur hubby .. Spend some couple time before the bb is here . U'd be confined in ur home , soon enough , for a quite while when ur bb is here.
Don't worry too much .. Enjoy this last stage while ur still in control .. Once bbs here , ur time is all his / hers .
Wish u a safe and swift delivery . .

@cynn04 congrats! that's good news to hear.
this morning i was just telling my sister (who carried to full term and induce for both pregnancies) that i really wish baby will arrive early coz it's so tiring now.
then she told me yes but that's a reason why baby wanna bake so long inside. must wait for baby to be ready and lungs developed well before deliver ma. true also.
partly i can't wait to see and hold baby tats why i hope baby come sooner hahaha.

I'm 34 weeks now and bb weighs 2.37kg. Doc says weight is ok. Nowadays the check up is very fast. Just scan, everything ok and doc just said to see me next week. He is seeing me weekly now due to my past 2 miscarriages. However, he didn't mention anything about when I will likely be due, whether I need induce or c sec etc.
My feet are so swollen now. Started 2 days ago. Maybe walk too much? I went to the pool to walk and I feel so light. The moment I came out of pool and walk a short distance, I felt so breathless.

Hahaha me too!! I wish baby to arrive early. My next visit to Gynae is next week hopefully he will say that i can deliver on weeks 37 or 38.
Now week 35 start to feel back pain , but lucky I still can sleep in the night.

@Vinka I am only week 34 and i just feel heavy and legs pain whenever I walk. I can sleep at night but turning or changing position is a real pain, my hip joints and thighs so painful. I think it's part of the hormones stuff relaxing my joints coz it seems too early for baby to be weighing my pelvis down since couple of weeks back. I dont want to waddle but the pain....i can't help it. haha.
hopefully next weekend when i see my gynae he will give me some clue on when i will deliver or if natural or c sec. but my gynae dr adrian is known to be quite chop chop...i assume he would say something along the line of 'when baby is ready to come out then baby will come la. dont need worry'. LOL

hey, I also get swollen feet. For me, I realise my feet swell really bad (can really see the water retention and swelling) if i sit too long at the desk and if i wear the normal ballet flats. But weekends when I wear my birkenstocks and walk around, the feet doesn't get that swollen, just very mild swelling. honestly i have no chance to elevate my feet, so maybe tats why it swells so much. Compression stockings from scholl helps alot when I wear them overnight. Every morning i wake up with skinny legs but start to swell again soon after I start work. haha.

I was hoping this time would be slightly earlier haha! Sooo tiring to carry to full term. By 38-39 wks i was so grumpy and uncomfortable cos couldnt sleep well and pain all over.
My gynae's nurse was laughing at my reaction just now. Oh well, the bb chooses his own birthdate.
Yeah i can feel you....that's why i really hope to deliver early hahaha.
Since my last check up on 32wks my gynae already told me to deliver naturally.
Hopefully he didn't change his mind on my next check up.
wow! wouldn't baby likely be rather big by then? mine was 2.4kg at week 35, and by week 37, he was 3kg! at that rate, by 39 weeks maybe 3.6kg already...
if he;s seeing you weekly, then you're probably not delivering yet... coz if close, he will tell you. i think they can see from the position of the baby... if very low, maybe will give birth soon... or if other factors like fluid level lower, baby weight stagnant... means ready to come out ler
Looks really bad... guess it's safer to see dr for reassurance?
Ya.. maybe I shd...tightness and kinda pain..

got try elevate feet, wear diff shoes or nothing works?
i understand, skin will feel very tight when u walk if swell so much.
gynae will check for other symptoms to ensure not serious, so better see doc for assurance.

Try soaking ur feet in warm water bath to improve blood circulation
Hi everyone, today is my 5th day being confined at home. Baby seems to sleep all day long. Don't remember my 1st 2 kids were so sleepy last time. Anyway,reading about all your posts regarding how tired you are, wishing for baby to come our soon etc, makes me wish that I haven't give birth. These few days when I look at baby, I sort of miss the times when I was pregnant. I actually miss being pregnant now!

Me@34weeks, baby 2.63kg already.
Wow yes it is swollen. Mine also swell but urs seems worse. Elevate at night during sleep, and also at office. It helps though wont cure.. u try to press ur feet whether its sunk in? Mine sunk in quite badly at night.. and skin super tight too.. Soon soon all these will be over..
Okay u r also in the same situation as me.. i asked gynae today and was told its okay as long as no higg blood pressure. If pregnant mommy has consistently high blood pressure, it is potential preeclampsia.. luckily my blood pressure is normal. So the swollen feet is only due to water retention.. i wonder if massage will help? But i know elevating feet at night helps to reduce..
Oh. Is it considered big bb? Hmm..Me@34weeks, baby 2.63kg already.

Wah really quite bad the water retention. You got any massage oil? My massage lady ask me to gently massage my feet every nite. Or ask ur hubby to help. Key is gentle massaging
Wahh i m ur opposite.. i luv elevate my leg at night.. but it causes blood circulation problem if too frequent.. so actually not supposed to la.. jia you us!
Tried elevating but tummy not comfy... sigh.. bear with it. My BP quite normal. Just walking down and up the steps is kinda difficult cos skin around ankle is very tight.
Mine only quite bad retention from last week onwards.. I'm 37 and this my 3rd. Gotta depend on my eldest to help do chores.. kekeke.. but she's soooo lazy... heeee
Tried massage but pain Leh
.rub also pain.. so in the end.. hubby stroke and tickle instead. wahahaha

During my last week of pregnancy. .. only then my feet were swollen. I slept with legs elevated and somehow it reduces the swell. Drink more. It helps too. Soak feet in warm water with salt. Help to reduce as well.
I still do sleep with my legs elevated tho. Right leg feels like I've walk a thousand miles in the day and by night time it feel sooo sore...
