Has anyone been told they might need a c section bc baby is measuring so big?

Question

How did it turn out?!

Answer

Search online for “evidence based birth big babies”. I’d post a link but it doesn’t work. The findings say that most of the time, a doctor suspecting you have a big baby is more harmful than actually having a big baby. In other words, it’s a really bad idea for them to get this idea and then change their plans based on it.

Answer

I have 4 kids and the ultrasound has been off (they overestimated) by an entire pound for 2 of them. And that's with an experienced technician who's been an OB TECH for over 10 years.

Answer

Ive had 4 c sections and happy to andwer any questions for anyone but agree on everyone else just because baby measuring big dont mean your body cant handle it

Answer

I was unknowingly carrying a 10lb 10oz baby and birthed him no problem. 5-hour labor and he came out with the first push 😂 He was my second. My first was 8lb 7oz.

Answer

I had a 9lb 2oz baby and I thought I was going to have to because I literally was all baby and my frame was small when I had him... Luckily I did not have to have a csection because I was terrified to death of the thought

Answer

I’ve heard that but I didn’t need a c-section, my baby wasn’t as big as they thought, and I gave birth gag naturally
