Im expecting a big baby about 10lbs & was wondering if anyone else had a big baby if they would mind showing me piccies of what they looked like

Im just envisioning a real chubby thing that prob wont fit in 0-3 month clothes for very long.....

Im imaging him to come out looking about 3 months old :wacko:
 
My LO was 10lb 3oz at birth and we had 0-3mth clothes yet they drowned him and I had to go get newborn instead!
This is him at a week old, he wasnt huge to look at really..

I had GD and was told to expect a bigger Baby, then had a growth scan every week for the last 13 weeks, where he always measured right. At my last scan at 39 weeks I was told he would be 7.7lbs..a week later he was born at 10lbs. My 1st Son I was told to expect a small Baby, no more than 6lbs and he was 8.8lbs..so they do get weights wrong so you may end up with a smaller Baby. If not don't worry..gravity is your friend when its a big Baby lol..x
 
mine wasnt quite a 10lber he was 9lb 1oz but still wanted to share a pic....hope you dont mind!:happydance:

my last son was 10lb 2oz, he didnt fit in newborn clothes that well but def still tiny and fitted 0-3 months till about 2 months, some even till 3 months.

I found it annoying that everyone gave me clothes at 3mths plus because he was "so big" i had to go and buy 0-3 that he could fit!

If you look at this pic when born i guess he does look chubby cute but at 6 weeks this is him and quite normal, he is 2 and a half now and tall but skinny...

My LO was estimated to be between 9.5-10.5 even when I was in labour the mws were saying how big she was gonna be and how I should give birth to prevent tearing etc - she was born on Sunday at 40+2 at 7lb11oz!
 
My niece was 9lb 9oz when she was born and I remember thinking that she didn't seem any bigger than my 6lb-er at birth.
 
This is my chubby 10lb8oz baby at 24 hours old in a 0-1month H&M babygro, hope this helps he was only in them for about 10days though as he grew so fast. The second pic is him at 5 days old in the kitchen sink :)

Ari was quite lon, he's a fast grower though. Never wore Nb, 0-3 for about 2 or 3 weeks, he's now mostly 3-6 and sometimes a 6-9. Real pain on the budget!
He's not chubby :( just solid. He's still all muscle.

Birthing big babies is great :happydance:

I forgot to say, Vinnie wore NB for 3 weeks and wore 0-3 till he was 3 months and 1 week old x
 
I kept being told i was having a big baby and she would be 9-10lb, she was 9lb 3oz. She looked huge when she was first born as she was so puffy but after about a week it went down, she was only in newborn for a week, then in 0-3 then she's been in 3-6 since 5 weeks. She's 2 days old in this pic and still really puffy but the pic in my sig she's 2 months.

He fit into newborn clothes for a couple of weeks,NEXT size up to 1 month were perfect for him.
 
My son Tristan was 9 pounds and 12 ounces! This photo was taken a few hours after he was born.

He wasn't particularly chubby, just very long - takes after his 6 foot 4 daddy!


Err, ignore the first photo - I attached the wrong picture by accident :dohh: and don't know how to remove it!
