StellaC: Her weight sounds ok for me. I have heard of baby who was born at 3.9kg. Actually above 3Kg is okay, easier to carry and look after, told by my mum.

If baby is too big for your delivery, (gynae may take your size and health conditions into consideration), gynae may suggest an induced labour.

3kg sounds ok! Most of my friends have babies around 3.5kg. What did your doctor say other than too heavy? Induce earlier?

Nowadays, many baby born above 3kg. But I hope my baby weight will be around 2.8kg, easy for delivery.

For coconut drink, I heard someone said should drink young coconut

Sunbeams, I heard that horror stories about the delivery process. A lot of mothers will be screaming in the observation room. Don't know how true it is. I hope that Min Xing can share with us her experience. I am starting to freak out.

My personal opinion don't need to take maternity too early, I rather spent more time with baby after born, unless you cannot tahan. I think 1-2 weeks before edd should be ok.

Most first time delivery not so fast, only in case of water bag burst or blood discharge a lot like menstrual then need to rush to hospital immediately.

The worst case just rush to hospital and ask your husband go back to collect your item needed, provided you have da bao ready

3.9 is really big! My mum also says bigger nicer to carry! Hehe. Dunno if is it cause my gynae just wants me to eat less .

He just says baby ggirl very "bui" haha. If too big not easy to deliver, plus I have a fibroid so he says might be problem if too big then have to c-sect.
I had a friend who checked that her girl was 3.8 so her gynae induced her as it's too big, but turned out baby is only 3.2.

Wa! Isn't that very big? And so tough to carry so much extra weight. So far I gained 12kg and there's a congested vein in my left calf that bulges out whenever I walk.

I keep dreaming every night that I am having labour pains.. And giving birth. Do you all also have dreams like that?

I've started having dreams about looking after baby etc! My first pregnancy related dream since I got my BFP. Think it's really hitting me that baby is coming out.
