big baby & c section

Ladies,my due date is Tuesday the 31st and today i saw my ob who told me that my baby is on the big side and he's not engaged yet . I'll have to do a scan on Monday to check if my pelvis is large enough for a big baby and if not, I'll have a c section. Both baby and i are fine but I'll be so disappointed if i won't give birth naturally.  I prepared myself for months for a natural birth :)

My baby weights 8.8 lbs and he hasn't dropped yet. My ob thinks I'm too small to leliver such a big baby so he talks now about c section. We'll decide on Tuesday

You and I are in the same boat. I'm due on the 31st as well. My baby is 7 lbs 12 oz already and my Dr hasn't planned to induce. however I'm afraid she may decide to if she's not here next week. I've been preparing for a natural birth as well so I'm praying she comes soon. Good luck!
