Hi, I'm Kristin. I don't have any of my own but I'm gonna guess that it varies woman to woman. I've heard of people having 7-pounders in great pain while people just popping out 9-pounders and vice virsa. Either way, I do hope it all goes well for you ^^

(BTW, THE CAPS LOCK IS REALLY HARD TO READ AFTER AWHILE!! :wink: )

Size doesn't affect the pain of childbirth. What really matters in a successful labour is the size of YOUR pelvis.

I don't think that the wieght of the baby matters any, and about the epideral, I had a 7 and a half lb. baby and I didn't get one, I did it without anything.
It really isn't that bad, I think you cando it!
?Buut, Good luck and congrats on your baby!
Oh, may I ask what you are having?

serioulsy, can you please take off the caps?

pain varies from women to women, depending on different thresholds.

and i dont think that what you eat nessacerliy dictates what size baby you will have. my sister was a health nut with her last pregnancy, gained about 25 lbs and had a ten pounder, while i ate everything and anything i could find and also had a ten pounder..
