LOL I prefer not to think about it, I hope to be on an epidural right around cracker stage! Last time I was more like a soda can because the hospital was short on anesthesiologists.

You would think since I have already done this once it wouldn't shake me, but it still seems to violate all of the laws of nature and physics. But I also have to step back and say, "Wow, my body can do that! That's pretty awesome!"
I remember a week or so before I had DD I was struggling to put my shoes on and finally DH came to help. As I looked down at my ginormous belly I thought, "This has to come out of there?!" It really seems impossible that it could work!
When I think about the size of my past babies their heads seem bigger than a bagel so to me it doesn't seem all THAT bad but yea, when you think about something in your body opening that big it's a little freaky.

Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck. Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.
I wish I could say this bothered me but with my husband around it didn't. He finds it astonishing and frequently shows me how big 10 cm is...even before u was pg lol

Re: Cervical Dilation chart. YIKES!
A flucking bagel.
This is mildly terrifying.
Agreed. I'll be putting that in the back of my head for now.
Yep. Kinda what I was thinking too.
Right?!?!?! RE-diculous.
I asked my DH, "Wanna know how big my insides will be to have this baby? A bagel." He said, "I'm so so sorry."

This Cluttered Life
I wished it grew to the size of a watermelon so the baby could slide right out!
Squeezing a baby through a bagel is the terrifying part
i literally just shed a tear.
Only one.
But still.
this is not natural....
Okay it's perfectly natural, but still... Not natural at all.
Yes:D
This is what I'm thinking, too. Why just a bagel?! I'd settle for a cantaloupe if we couldn't make it all the way to a watermelon, lol.
Also, I'm hungry. Again.
