Big Baby Horror Stories

kstopforth

Just to preface, I know I shouldn't be freaking out.

 Here it goes: I charted before getting pregnant and know (roughly) the date of conception which would put my due date at my birthday this year (May 26). I was 7lb. 11oz. when I popped out and my husband was 7lb. 1oz. which should mean may baby will roughly be somewhere in there right? Well, my baby keeps measuring a week and a half to two weeks ahead and is weighing in at (what an average baby would be) 3 weeks ahead. Every time I tell someone that we're still confused on the due date, they tell me these horror stories of 10 - 12 lb. babies that had to be cut out (c-section) because the mother was too small, etc. 

Needless to say, this absolutely horrifies me. I BADLY want to have a natural birth and for everything to go as smoothly as possible (cross my fingers). Now I keep hearing these crazy stories and I'm starting to think I'm going to have this HUGE baby and be in recovery for months! Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone has any experience or advice that might help? TIA
