here's pushing out a toddler story for y'all...

my fiancee's mother had all four of her boys naturally. The last one weighed a hair less than 14lbs. Let me repeat she had him NATURALLY! No epi, no nothing. And the ironic thing is, he's the smallest of them now.

Being a week or two off the measurements basically means nothing. I'm 26wks today and she said I was within a week of my due date, so nothing to worry about.

Weird thing,

I was told that the average size of your full-term baby directly correlates with your shoe size...
I.E. If you wear a size 7 (like me), you are likely to have a 7lb baby. Mine was born at 6lbs, 3oz. (Pretty close)

These natural stories always crack me up. What on earth did women do before there was epi? Smile They had babies NATURALLY!

Apparently, it isn't the size of the baby that is at issue. You will still feel pain regardless of size. - I don't know that for a fact myself, because my babies have been under 7lbs. But that is what I've read.
