re: wanting to have a big baby

Quoting sratrat:“ for me they did massage the area but they had to cut me anyway. Recovering from an episiotomy was worse than labor imo. I couldn't stand it!”

omg that sucks! why did you need one cuz the baby wouldnt go through or what??

Quoting Tracy Ann:“ I only gained 12 lbs with my first pregnancy (& I went 12 days overdue) and my daughter weighed ... [snip!] ... my daughter weighed 7 lbs 14 oz. The day before I had her-someone actually asked me if I had just had a baby. So don't worry.”

haha wow....hmm thats crazy only twelve pounds! well ive gained ten so far and am 30 weeks but yea...did u lose all your weight after you had your baby??

My neighbor only gained 11 pounds but had a 7 pound baby.....I gained 40 and had a 7 pound 6oz. baby....lost all of the weight right after birth..I was 104 PP, 144 at birth and by the time I left the hospital (after 5 days) I weighed 112...I'm 118 now and am loving every ounce of it!!

I was sooo sick after I had her and retaining so much water I had only lost 8 lbs when I came home. But I was down really quick after that. WIth my son I gained 18 pounds and he weighes 7 lbs 14 oz. I have severe morning sickness the first trimester and I am hypoglycemic so gaining weight in a healthy way can be a challenge. With this baby I have gained the most of any(about 28 so far)-but hopefully it comes off quickly.

Quoting Sexyy mama:“ I was wondering this might sound kind of dumb but I wanted to know if their are any foods that will make ... [snip!] ... baby or just a small stomach?? becuase thats what I'm worried about...becuaseI have a small stomach my baby will be small.”

i dont think your tummy size relates to your baby's size. i was pretty big and my daughter was only 6lbs. same happened with my mom and her last baby. they told me i had a tiny placenta, so idk if thats how i ended up with a little peanut. she's a month and a half old and wearing preemie still. we're just starting her in some NB stuff. she was only a couple days early too.

I was probably going to tear. My son was 9 pounds. I only pushed for 30 minutes but he felt stuck pretty much the whole time until the doctor cut me. About 2 pushes later he was out.

i didnt start showing till about 6 months, and my baby boy was 7 pounds 6 pz, 20 1/2 inches = ]
