I'd love to hear from anyone who's had a baby after previously having a very big one. I am due this Saturday and getting very nervous as a growth scan for this one at 37 weeks was showing it already at 8lb 7oz (I know they can be a pound out either way though - but what if its the wrong way?!)
My previous births went like this:
DD1, 41+4 3.5kg
DD2, 39+5 3.5kg
DD3, 41+2 4.65kg
They've also all been OP - and not turned so I've had very long back labours. All have been natural apart from had a forceps delivery with no 1. I've (eventually, with no 3 not until the 3rd stage - aarggh!) had epidurals all 3 times as have been unable to cope with the pain for such long times - not managed it in under 24 hours yet so am hoping for an improvement this time!)
Any stories that would set my mind at rest much appreciated!
