So my first (daughter) was born at 39w 6d and was 9lbs 3 oz and 22inches. She only ever measured a week ahead at times. So nobody thought she'd be that big. Besides me being obese I had no indication of her being big. I ended up hemorrhaging real bad after I had her 2 liters blood loss.
My doctor said it is not a danger for me to be pregnant again in the future. However, they will keep a close eye on me.
Fast forward to now, I am 28w 5d and by fundal height measuring 31. I have a growth scan on April 20th so around 32w 4d. I already have a strong feeling he'll be another large baby. All the symptoms that I had with my daughter are here again or just starting. The massive heartburn was a big one.
So if he does measure big on this one I will have one more growth scan around 36 weeks and more than likely I'll be induced early. I have no problem with being induced early, but my concern is having a C-section.
So a few questions,
1) if you had a large baby for your first did you have another large baby for your second?
2) if you where induced did you end up needing a C-section. And what week where you induced.
