DH has about the biggest head I've ever seen. I was a little worried when I was pregnant with DD, but she was an average sized baby (guess she has my head. LOL).
Now that I'm pregnant again, I'm terrified that LO is going to be huge and I'm going to have to push for 3 hours to get his giant melon out.
The 2nd child is usually bigger, right?
I don't know if I can do this.
Re: Have you seen the size of my husband's head?
Haha... H and I are more worried about hair. Along with both sides of our families, we believe our child will come out looking like sasquatch. Unfortunately, big thick dark hair, dark bushy eyebrows run on BOTH sides!
I'm sure you'll be fine though...
HAHA i have the same fear about my baby i looked like a baby monkey when i was born and i still am hairy. My dad said when i was born he wanted to attach a tail to my clothes so i would really look like a monkey :-(
I hope she does not get his eyebrows. He got his eyebrows from his mother, and ugghh...they are big French eyebrows. His little sister has them too. I sooo hope she is not cursed with the eyebrows. I even wax his because they get so out of control.
Don't worry ;-) My DH has a huge head too. Kiddo definitely got it - he was 8lb 6oz but with a 95+ percentile head (which has stayed that big even though the rest of him is average!). But I still had only a tiny (not even 1st degree) tear and only pushed for 45 minutes the first time.
You can do it!
