Yay for fat babies!

Holy shit! Pregnancy is painful! My darling little Beckett is causing a lot of discomfort. This is a good thing, however, because it means he's growing. It also means that I'm probably going to have another big baby. Ryan was 10 lbs 10 oz. and Kiera was 9 lbs exactly. And no, I did not have gestational diabetes. My babies just like to pack on the pounds. Anyway, considering that boy babies tend to weigh more than girl babies, I'm betting that Beckett will be at least 9 lbs 8 oz and at most 10 lbs 2 oz. I don't know why I picked these exact numbers; they just sound nice. I don't think Beckett will be nearly as big as Ryan. Ryan was a week overdue so that gave him more time to pack on another pound. I'm having a scheduled c-section this time therefore I won't be overdue...therefore I probably won't have such a big baby. Sounds logical, right? Right.

And then add in the breastfeeding and I have really big, fat, roly-poly babies. Babies that are hard to carry... babies that will put your back out. Maybe I'll have to cave and get one of those monstrous strollers anyway...
