someone reckons this one will be 7lb 10oz - i nearly kicked them.. i can't have a baby that big (i know, not big compared to half the babies born on here) but big for me.

ok, you can have my 7lb 10-er, lol.
I already know this one has a big head.. i spose that's what counts really.. i mean, that's what does the damage.

Blair was 8lb 15oz when he was born and i thought thank god i didn't have to push him out (c-section), but apparently the bigger they are the easier they are to push out so i've been told by many people.

yeah i heard bigger ones are easier to actually feel what you are pushing.. but they do the damage too. as i said.. this one has a big head...well, it's in proportion, but at 33 wks.. you look at the scan and there's a little person with everything formed.. and you think omigod that baby is so big.. compared to the 20 wk scan where its all skinny and bony. last time i didn't get a 2nd scan, so it was all guess work with paris.

We thought Josiah would be bigger than he was... with Kiya being 7lb 13, I thought he'd be 7.5-8.5lb. Nope, 7lb exactly. My waters broke, and half my tummy disappeared!

OH, boy, you ladys should try 8p14oz with a very big head, OUCH. My son was that big, even the nurses kept saying about his huge head, and no, I dont think he was any easyier to push out.

Maya was 9lb1oz and born at 38 weeks - thank God she decided to come early!!!!! And her head was 36.5cm!
On a scan at 36 weeks the weight estimate was 7lb9oz, so she did some serious growing in the last two weeks. But she was still covered in vernix which is a sign of preterm birth.
But I don't think she was that hard to deliver, I didn't end up with any stitches, just a tiny tear. I guess it depends on your own body, and I am quite big boned (fat too, but big boned) so I guess I probably have a big pelvis?

ouch. hey, does anyone know.. if you has stitches last time.. are those areas more likely to tear this time.. cos i mean it'll be scar tissue.. so it won't necessarily stretch? just a thought i had.
