Overdue
Hi ladies
My baby was due last wednesday so i am now 5 days over due and pretty fed up!!!! Im just wondering those of you who have had babies already and went over due what did your little one weigh? Im worried that im going to give birth to a massive baby the longer it stays inside! lol
I am so petite and starting to worry now about being a big baby!
Thanks

I know how fed up you must be feeling, but I promise you it'll be worth it in the end - you'll forget this fed up feeling as soon as you see your baby!
Good luck x
I went 3 days over and lo was 7lb 3oz so don't worry too much!! I ate lamb dansak nearly every night for that last week and drank raspberry leaf tea. The works. It probably doesn't do anything but I was desperate!
Good luck, hope lo comes along soon x
Try not to worry though, If you're petite it's unlikely you'll have a huge baby hon - I'm 5"6 and a size 14 and was a biggish baby myself at 8lb 5
Big babies are great anyway - they tend to sleep better, feed well & generally be more settled - in the early days at least!! This was my own experience anyway!!

He's a good handfull and much easier to handle than a smaller baby,don't worry you'll be fine.xx

It is miserable going over but I promise once your lo arrives you wont even care how long you had to wait!!!
Good Luck!
It is hell while going through it, but I had a sweep at a week late and that kick started my labour. Ask your midwife for one as soon as she'll give you one.
Hope your baby makes an appearance soon and that you have a positive labour experience xx
Really feel for you, it's horrible isn't it. I went 12 days over and my LO was 7lbs 12oz, so still average despite being late.
Try not to worry about it. Doesn't always mean they will be big if they are late.
Good luck, xx
You'll be fine hunny! Being over due wont make any noticable difference at all! If you baby is big - it would be big if you were on time too!
Good luck - you'll be fine, and we'll see you in here really soon.
