I'm not a big-framed woman but I just gave birth to an 8 lb 10 oz baby, without meds and without complication (the placenta was a different story...that's where the anemia came from) so you can handle whatever comes your way. Don't waste your energy on anxiety! Oh, and you may also want to try reflexology to kick things off.squirrelgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03699033731188360469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8089789578809802571.post-67674148197231902562010-09-14T12:16:43.748-04:002010-09-14T12:16:43.748-04:00E was measuring at 7 1/2 lbs when I was 34 weeks a...E was measuring at 7 1/2 lbs when I was 34 weeks and ended up at 8lbs 2 oz.

Autumn was somewhere between 9.5 and 9.9 and although that caused us to have the c-section...she was a great sleeper right from the start, had no issues with jaundice, etc. It will all work out!! :o) So excited for you!!Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06822765438533674466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8089789578809802571.post-11224067665537507302010-09-14T08:51:01.086-04:002010-09-14T08:51:01.086-04:00Holy Moly!

The only big ones I know of were total surprises (and from my littlest friends, of course!) So -- I'm praying for you to get exactly what you've been hoping for in your birth experience!

Not that your doctor is wrong - just saying don't worry too much. And, I have had a few 100lbs girlfriends (haha - that is NOT me!!) deliver 10 punders with no problems! I will pray things go great for you and you are able to deliver a healthy baby (vaganially :) no matter what!!Holly Rutchikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16772621408994976608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8089789578809802571.post-30108205630117311482010-09-13T20:29:29.995-04:002010-09-13T20:29:29.995-04:00Wow!
