I hear ya... My first baby boy was 9 lbs. 8 1/2 oz. My total weight during that pregnancy was 152. I looked like I was carrying twins! But I managed.... and now at nine years old, he is a stick. All legs and arms! You would never know he was a chunky ( ) baby!

LOL........yeah, I weighed about 160--relatively tall stick woman with a big baby belly.

I remember the day Christopher was born, there were 8 boys born that day, and he was the biggest (there was a set of triplets born that day).

The next day, there was one girl born--all day--and she outweighed all those boys!

I remember that I had black eyes--broken blood vessels in my eyes; it took about an hour to get all the tangles out of my hair, and it was about 3 weeks before I thought I might live.

I think all mommies go to heaven...

Ow.


And that comes from a woman that has birthed 4 babies, from 8 1/2 pounds to 10 pounds. No gestational diabetes. No C-sections. (Hey - I didn't say no pain meds!)


And for those of you afraid to give birth, remember that's a VERY LARGE baby. I'd be happy to give you my "happy baby birthing" experience stories if you ever want to hear them ;D

LOL!I know about the BIG baby birthing thing.Our second was a bit over 10 lbs(and I'm not a big person to begin with) and I did it with no pain meds.To top it off he had this huge round head ;D,luckily he's grown into it*LOL*.Numbers 1 and 3 we're a modest 5.5lbs and 8lbs.All is all I have had some amazing birthing experiences, and we even video taped them all(of course I have yet to watch them--not your typical popcorn fare )

Geez I feel for all you moms out there - the pain you take in the pelvic area - and that sciatica nerve - I think each mom after delivery should get a massage - for all you have to go through....!

**reads story and sweats**
I can't imagine. With the twins I DID carry 14 pounds of baby but thank God there were two. It was a little eaiser to pass. **grin**

The pregnancy, with that much baby and all of the other stuff that's swimming around, was REALLY long and hard.

The thought of that makes my croch hurt!

Let me just say:

BACK LABOR IS A beeaatch!!!!

And Mochamom, you are a bigger person than me. I warned everyone in the family that any cameras in the hospital room while I was in labor would result in a broken (as in shattered to smithereens) camera. No pictures were taken until enough time had elapsed for me to feel civil, and the baby cleaned up........

OMG! THAT is much more painful than regular labor pains. Epidurals are a gift to a woman with back labor.

First Labour: 5 1/2 hours, pelvic pain, baby born on its side, 11 stitches, 7lbs.
Second Labour: 5 hours, backache labour, swearing at large portrait of Liam Neeson(don't ask), 9lbs 1oz, no stitches.
Third Labour: Same labour pains as first, with added sciatica. Baby born on its side, no stitches, 9lbs 8ozs. The best contraceptive ever.
