31 Weeks 2 Days Antenatal Check

Ha! I am feeling rather good today.
I am now exactly 2 calendar months from my due date and have just 61 days to go. I can also say in a very realistic way that there is a good chance that I may be a mummy of 2 NEXT month. Although I am not due until November 4th, I only need to be 5 days early to have an October baby.
I had a Doctors appointment this morning that was scheduled weeks ago before the hospital dash last week.
All looks fine.
My BP was perfect for the first time ever. It's always a little high which I believe is because of my weight but I was exactly in the middle of the normal range.
Everything else was fine and I did end up with more information from my GP than I had in the hospital. He looked through my notes and said that he could see why they were concerned about premature birth - Baby was in the head down position when I was given the portable scan in the delivery room.
Seeings that everything was running well besides that little incident, I don't have to go back for another 4 weeks. It was supposed to be 3 but he's on holiday that week and said that he could see no reason for me to come in early or see the locum. He would be happy to see me again in 4 weeks as long as I was comfortable with that and if I had any worries between now and then I can contact the hospital or surgery at any time. So if he's not concerned then neither am I. I had been feeling the pressure a little after that scare but feeling very much at ease with this pregnancy again now. So next appointment will be October 2nd and I will be 35wks and 2 days pregnant by then. (*excited little eek!!!*)
