Guest guest Posted October 29, 2001 Report Share Posted October 29, 2001 Talking of this, did anyone else see that Fred Trueman's grand-daughter gave birth to a 11lbs 10oz daughter naturally, without pain relief - OUCH! Francesca (8lbs 15oz was bad enough!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah but size isn't everything 10lb 8oz was easier than 9lb 8oz which was easier than 6lb!! And no tears or grazes from birthing #2 and #3 Jenni ( & Gethyn) 17yrs - 6lbs - Hospital Birth - induced by oxytocin drip/pethidine/epidural/retained placenta Mari 3yrs - 9lb 10oz - Home Birth - gas and air/retained placenta/primary pph Nia 13/09/01 - 10lb 8oz - Home Water Birth - gas and air/retained placenta/primary pph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 30, 2001 Report Share Posted October 30, 2001 That's good to hear Jenni :0) - maybe it was just the fact that my biggest baby thus far was the first and not the fact that she was 8lbs 15oz. I certainly hope so as I reckon DD2 (7lbs 15) was a blip and no. 3 will be a 9/10lb-er. Off for my 20 week scan tomorrow and fight with the consultant over a water birth - think of me at 11.20!
