Anyone care to place a wager?
Technically I'm due on the 17th.
But having some cramps here and there.
We already know its a boy.
Date and weight?

I'll say happy birthday on the 16th, Jonas, at a healthy 8lb 4oz.
How's that for a slice of fried gold? |

Bastille Day, this boy's gonna be in touch with his French Canadian roots.
7 pounds 6 ounces like his future soulmate.

Have a c-section, preferrably under general anesthesia. Sleep thru the whole thing.

That's terrible. Really. (I know you're probably joking, but the high rates of c sections in the US is a tragedy of medical malpractice.) |

Sorry if I offended. I wasn't being flippant. It's what happened to me after 2 days of labor.
I am sure Carolyn will pop that baby right out, being the breeder that she is, unlike me.

| I don't want to mess up Carolynanna's thread. Sure c sections are needed sometimes, but too often their done for convinence (for the patient or the doctor) or to reduce the doctor's liability. Both of my kids were c-sections, which still upsets my wife. Long stories. |

I don't wanna mess up the thread either, darwin. My section was an emergency one and definitely necessary. As it was, the baby scored a 2 on the Apgar at birth. Anyway, back on topic...
What's your wager, sir?

I predict tomorrow evening. Eight lbs, three ounces.

Oh you guys mess away.
C-sections and birth is an interesting topic.
I did make the mistake of watching some baby story on TLC the other day.
Good lord, it just doesn't fit!

How big are these babies when they come out then?
How much "dilated" does it get?
Seriously, scared!
Never having children
and you're questioning the sciences

you're looking like an idiot

10 cm tre, 10 cm.
Bones move too!
Seriously though, epidurals make it way way way easier.
I had a nap at 8 cm dilated with the epidural.
Without at 8 cm, I was begging to be knocked out...
