hi hun, sorry to hear ur so stressed an havin a hard time.... they dont always get babys weight right! my lo was 2 weeks overdue an they prredicted he was gonna be 7lb... i only put 13lb on....i was induced an baby arrived at a WHOPPING 10LB10! my labour/birth lasted just over 7 hrs an although i had a 2nd degree tear i didnt think it was that bad...the other girls had small babies an had to have assistance! so personally i dont think size matters - tho i might just av been lucky... ask why you cant try induction / vbac first???? good luck an really dont worry bout havin a big baby they are much easier to handle :-)

hey thanks for the positive comments. I can't be induced because of my previous section. My due date is July 20th & baby hasn't engaged because it's too big so this kinda was my trial. The clinics are fully booked for next few weeks so they've had to squeeze me in as I'm already 40 weeks & doc said section should have really been done last week. I had really hoped for a good birth experience this time &I just don't see it happening cause I'm so wound up about the surgery -it took me so long to recover last time & I had MRSA. I'm just feeling really upset & stressed by it all so thank you for listening xo
