[quote=Anonymous]Leaving aside the C v. vag birth debate, I will echo the PP who said having a big first baby is a blessing - I was scared enough as a FTM, I would have been terrified handling one of those tiny, floppy newborns. Plus, the heavier they are when they're born, the more ounces they can safely lose the first few days without the hospital/pediatrician pressuring you to start supplementing. Mine was very late as well as 9+ lbs, so it was like starting with a two-weeker: he could hold his neck up, he was awake for feedings, and he just generally seemed sturdy.[/quote]
