Sorry Vanessa - hijaking the thread for a moment.

Yep, my hubby is pretty tall. His whole family is gigantic and my family is short. Our wedding pictures looked really funny. We are not a "cute" couple because we look so very different.

I have never heard about being induced at 9 pounds. It could be what a specific doctor does but I don't think it's generally practiced. You were induced 2 weeks early and weighed that much??? Wow.

I heard that it is pretty difficult to be exact on the weight via ultrasound.

maybe if you're over your due date and the baby is measuring 9+ pounds they'd induce. i've never heard of it though, especially since the measurement can be off by 2 pounds either way. i don't think they'd want a 7 pound baby coming out before it's ready, right? 7 pounds is a good size but not reason to induce, you know?

i had a scan the day before my induction and they told me if he was 10 pounds+ i could opt for a c-section. he ended up measuring 9 1/2 pounds but was really only 8lbs 5oz. i wish he'd measured 10 though so i could've had the c-section i ended up with anyway without having to go through the 14 hours of labor first.

ahhh man.. 14 hours and then a c section !! I wouldnt wish that on anyone... Maybe it was to get a C section.. You know how it goes..Ever woman you meet has there experiances with doctors.. A friend of mine was just telling me about several girls she knew that that had happened to(all our husbands are in the military and the military doctors can.. sometimes kinda suck).. Id really rather not have to be induced for fear of a long labor.. Luckily I get the have the baby at a civilian hospital though which im happy about.
