He's gonna be big...

I was almost 10.5 my brother almost 11 and well my family tends to have big babies...

She felt him today didnt give me a weight but based on how she worded it im guessing he's probly already close to 8.....

She said my 40weeks he would be at least 10+... so i dont have another apt till the 21st (navy dr.'s agh!) but then we discuss options... oh yay!

 

 

but good thing is i had a diff midwife and she was so nice and i explained how i gained weight this month due to a number of not normal eating situations and my plan for the month and she was fine with it all...  so yay.. nice dr.. but eeek! big baby

Yikes!  Does she plan on inducing if he reaches a certain *estimated* size?

im not sure, she said right now for fundal height im on target... so depending on the next appointment where i stand, we'll get an u/s or figure something out i guess... idk

 

nerve racking... dh is away

Your fundal ht is right on, but baby is measuring big?  Doesn't make sense to me.

Oh well, GL!  I know how stressful it can be
