My baby is already 6 pounds and I just turned 35 weeks today. I know she's gonna be a chunky thing but its OK. I was 10 pounds and my bf was 8 so I figured I was gonna have big babies.

Lol @ fat squishes.  Not sure about the birthing part but I want a big baby  to hold after the fact.  They seem more sturdy :) either way he'll gain weight in or out of the womb. We will see which one. :)
