Apparently, I'm having the world's largest baby...

[~*Niadalla*~]

What I want to know is, when did 9lb become "huge"? 9lb is a biggish baby, chunky even (depending on if they are heavy because they are fat or because they are long!) but not huge. I've even heard women told they are having a "really big 8lb". 10lb, 11lb, yeah, large but even then not unheard of to have a completely uncomplicated delivery of them. Maybe if you are 5 foot tall 9lb is huge.

I am also confused as to how 9 lb is HUGE. Yeah, he had a 37.5cm head, but once that was out the rest of him fell out. I am so determined to VB my baby, regardless of how 'huge' they might deem her to be. Just very frustrated that they keep trying to find things Wrong with me all the time.

Also use the words that you have a "tried pelvis" so your body has proved that you can birth larger babies and honestly if you gave birth to a baby with a 37.5cm head you shouldn't have a problem. Stick to your guns and best of luck.
