Hi, Thanks to you all for your advice and suggestions.
i had the baby eventually, on the 5th October, it was a little girl weighing a surprisingly smaller 8lb 9oz than the 10lb odd that all the doctors thought she would be!!

Thanks again
Ceri

Been watching this thread
Any news yet?

4 weeks overdue is a bit much, I live in Australia & the doctors don't let you go over 2 weeks overdue. Anyway to get the baby going if you haven't already tried it
1. Sex
2. Lots of walking
3. Lots of ice water
or as a last resort a spoonful of Castor oil, guaranteed to work although it tastes terrible.
Good luck, my daughter was 2 weeks late & had to be induced but all my boys were early, the eldest & the twins were 37weeks & the youngest 34weeks.

A good dose of cod liver oil should do the trick!
I'm not kidding ;)

Cod liver oil i know someone who swears by it and says the birth is much easier.

oh poor you she will come when shes ready. i was induced with all 4 of mine not because i was late they were all 2 weeks early i couldnt carry them for longer due to med probs.
they also said my last daughter was bigger than average all the way through but when she was born although 2 weeks early, she was only 6 pound 6oz.
Good luck hope all goes well for you.

i agree the docs aren't always right they told me my eldest wasn't growing properly and would be less than 5lb but as i said he was 9lb i went through 20hrs labour and 2 hrs pushing before they relised he was stuck and i had a c-sec. they also told me my daughter would be about 10lbs but she was tiny at only 6lb 5 1/2oz. they were right with my youngesth though.

i decorated my kitchen by myself in 1 night a few days later i went into labour he was 3 weeks early and weighed 7lb 2 1/2oz if he had of stayed in there until he was due he probably would have been about 9lb the same as my eldest was

hi chick i know how u feel all mine were late and they told me all were goin to be big my first was 9lb 2nd 8lb 3rd told me he would be hugh out came this little 7lb so there not always right all i can say is relax because when he /she here u dont get i minute to yourself all the best x

I was late with my first...and he set the grade at 9lb........the others were early ....at 8lb4, 9lb, and 10lb...........so I would have hated to go over .......
Sex is your only answer!!! hehehe....LOL

Poor you ....just stick with it and baby will soon be here!.....you dont want a Virgo anyway!

just because she is big, doesn't mean her organs ie; lungs are fully developed sounds as though she is right no of weeks and a big baby ian, how mant weeks is she?

Dont know about inducing........ size of that one think I would be begging for cesarian,........lol

Ive been asked by just about everyone in the street whether i was having twins or due to drop since i was only about 20 weeks though, they couldnt believe it when i said no just one and only 20 weeks lol
i feel like i got triplets, let alone twins lol (lets hope there only one and that they havent got that wrong) lol

eviction notices were given to it when i was about 30 weeks let alone now, lol
