hi joyce,
when she told me last sat, i was quite shocked, so i didnt say much, but listen to her opinion. (She keep saying its normal to be born at 38th week, its full term, not premature. Should not be fixated with the EDD date as it is a date plus minus 2 weeks. )
Just that i gave her a very disappointed look. Anyway, coz i am not scheduled yet, (she proposed 21st april)i thought i must give it some thought before i state my objections in my next visit. But after speaking to all my frens who has delivered and immediate family, none side my gynae's opinion...just like what you said..still can gain weight even though maybe not be ideal weight gain.
and the fact is that even at this stage, my pregnancy does not make me xin ku at all, i would really wan my baby to stay as long as possible and only comes out when he is ready.
