I heard that the bigger the baby is, the easier it is to push out.. Has anyone else heard this b 4??? My sis says that ppl have told her that, but its hard to believe?

I was my mothers 3rd baby, I weighed 10lbs even, and I practically fell out. She didn't have time for any pain medication (not that she would haven taken it anyways). Anyways, she firmly believes that my size is actually what made labor so easy and fast with me, the entire labor lasted less than an hour!!! I'm hoping my son will be a big one... bet ya don't hear that too often huh?

Depends on your size. I'm small and my son was 9lbs 6oz. It took 3 hrs of pushing and the vacumn to get him out not to mention the 3rd degree tore. Ouch.
