Her doctor did tell her that the baby would be a "little" big, but seriously? Her birth set the record at the hospital that year for the largest baby, and she was born Jan. 4th. I hope you have a nice, normal sized baby!

And you are so right - our bodies are amazing.<br /><br />Mb - While I want to hug you for your comment, I feel compelled to tell you that if you knew me in person, I'm quite sure you'd have a different impression.

I feel like, it is what it is if he's huge, but I want some idea beforehand - facing labor is scary enough as it is.<br /><br />Wendy - Oh, thanks. Super lumbering. Everything feels so damn hard.
