My son arrived completely naturally at 40+1 at 9lbs even. My body was ready and so was my brain - I've got a small frame but I was able to deliver with no tearing or damage. A big baby isn't necessarily a big deal.

I had to be induced, my son came at 40+4. I'm currently 27 weeks and I'm looking forward to how this little guy will make his entrance.

My son came at 40 weeks. Hoping for that again this time around. I would hate to go to 41/42 weeks.

Same here I was induced at 40+5, but my baby girl came at average 7.6lbs 19in. I'm praying this little man comes on his own unlike his big sister

My first born came a day early and was 9lb1. Big babies run in our family too and I'm scared of another big baby but I'm just happy I'm having another one to be honest.

I just had mine this week.  I was 40+3 when I delivered. Had two other babies 4 and 6 years ago both of which were early. So going over was very new for me   This time I had a bigger baby but I handled the delivery better. Than I did with my smaller children I really think no matter how big the baby your body will handle it better if your closer to your due date because your body is ready
