@lanaiacharleston1998, smaller meals are better for you and baby. If you are eating healthy don't let your mom shame you into eating less! Just continue to be health conscious, and break up your meals. If you are really worried ask your doctor and start walking more.

If you are worried about delivery ask your doctor what stretches are good to help with labor and delivery.

9lbs 15.5 oz. 42 hours in labor, 5.5 hrs of that in hard labor. She was in the wrong position, She got stuck! I threw up, and probably other stuff too! They cut me and I still tore. 6+ weeks of recovery and very soft cushions on chairs!!!

That's the short version...

My baby was born 10 pounds. I had to get an emergency c-section (not fun). & ya my baby girl ate alot in the beginning.. typically newborns eat 1-2oz every 2 hours (formula) but my baby needed 3-4oz every 2 hours (but our dr said thats fine 🍼)

@juliaschade41, I feel like 8lbs is a normal weight but rn my family is making it seem like it's 600lbs lolz

@nickee, awe she's a cutie

My daughter was 9 lbs at birth and now at 9 months she is 22 lbs. she's always been upper 90th percentiles for both weight and height. She's chubby but in a cute baby chub kinda way! And even with being 9 lbs at birth she didn't look fat or anything.

@lanaiacharleston1998 supposedly according to doctors, my baby is already over 8 pounds.

My niece was 9 pounds 6 ounces when she was born. Everyone was expecting a 7 pound baby but we got surprised lol.... She will be 9 months on the 27th and she's only 15 pounds now. She's so tiny.

Thank you so much.. hopefully my mom will understand.. I even limited my eating because she thinks it's because I eat to much even though I ate super healthy an only breakfast lunch an dinner an maybe one snack sometimes
