Don't panic, measurements like that are usually over estimated (I'm plus size too and they like to make you feel bad about it). My midwife had sent me for a scan and stuff in my second pregnancy and it was all fine. Even if baby is a little on the large size they might just want to induce you a bit earlier incase you struggle to push him/her out after a couple more weeks of fat building.
I've seen the 3d ultrasound and he has chubby cheeks just like me. Lol I'm glad they might induce me just scared and nervous. I heard it hurts being induced.
'I see alot of ftms nervous, actually-even having one already there is still that little "oh goodness, I really have to do this!?!" feeling. Lol. Getting a big baby out through a little opening is scary.
But remember- Women are built for this, babies are born everyday and since the beginning of time- if the other moms can/have/will do it, so can you.
You will be fine good luck
It's really not bad being induced. I was with my first. The contractions are stronger, I can tell you that because my second was all natural. This one will be all natural as well. I've already told my husband and the Dr's I don't want drugs until I go in to get my tube burned,tied,and removed
Thank you ladies. All of my friends think its a big mistake to get induced and they aren't really making me feel good about it.
I'm plus size and I have to be induced due to gestational hypertension. I'm nervous too but I have not heard many negatives. I just don't want a c-section.
I've heard that the chances of c section go up if you're induced. :-\ but I don't know.
