Nice to know! When I was pg with DD I was always told head head was spot but she was small weight wise, I was never to concerned and ended up with a CS so have no idea if it 'felt' big. When she was born people commented how she was small but it is the head size that counts when 'giving birth'.
I am hoping for a VBAC next time and these silly comments have got me thinking. Although I think that my next bub might be bigger all over as Matilda was born at 38+2 weeks via CS with no indication from her that she was planning to evacuate any time soon and also as she has a chromosome deletion which leads to low birth weight.
I am putting silly things in my head I think.
When I was pg with Matilda I had no doubt in my mind that I could birth her naturally, my fear was CS, now that I have had a CS and for me it was such a breeze (CS and recovery) I am kind of telling myself how hard it is going to be to go natural after this experience. I want a natural birth more than anything and I know that I can do it. I am just like anyone I suppose, I overthink things.
Thankyou for your responces. I think that 35.5cm seems ok, not small but definatly not large.
