25-12-2008 - scared to death

My mood while writing this blog: Ok

---

So I go to the doctors yesterday.......the baby is 9lbs or so from what the doctor says. I am scared out of my mind because my biggest child so far has been 6 lbs 14 oz....My epidurals have never worked and I was told if I had to have a cesarean that I would have to go under general anesthesia for that reason. My doctor is definitely not one that relays the whole warm and fuzzy attitude.......on the other hand she is very informative and tells it like it is. She went over the whole thing again......this time if I have to have a cesarean they will attempt a spinal block instead of the epidural........she scheduled me for another ultrasound tomorrow to see if I would even be able to attempt a Vaginal birth.......I'm so scared to go under....I'm scared to have a cesarean...........and I'm scared to give birth to a 10 lb baby. Induction is set for 1/2/09 only 3 days before my due date.....I'm thinking to myself seriously....what will 3 days do? I am thinking to myself that I have quite a bit of pain toleration and after having twins and many hours of ink on me I have learned to fight through the pain and not be a wuss..........at the same time I'm still unable to fight off the fear of going in there with a huge baby and not knowing what will happen.............I guess I will know more tomorrow but still right now I can't help but to have major anxiety. At this point I am so thankful that this will be my last little angel.

wow 9 lbs would be scary..but better being bigger rather than too small right?

large babies run in my family(8-10lb average) so im sure im gonna have at least an 8lber
but if 9lbs sounds really big just imagine this--my best friend Autumn had her little girl WITHOUT any pain meds, reg vaginal birth and she weighed 12lbs 4oz!!! and she was induced 1 1/2 weeks early..so theres always a baby that could be bigger
