I thought you were a bit taller than me? I'm 5'6". my pre=preg weights range from 111-118. but yeah, from family members and people who knew me un-pregnant, I got a lot of OMG WHERE'D SHE FIT A 10 POUNDER???? I don't know if it'll open for you (my BIL's photo album works funny for me, it might be locked or something) but here's a picture of me at 11 weeks this pregnancy.
I've heard pineapple is an old wives tale, but for some reason hearing it could have an effect put me in the mood for it anyway :P chances are it was just time for this guy to come out!
hope to hear some news soon.. or at least one of these days ;)
I think our_nest is 5'9.. maybe you were confusing her with me?
20 lb extra seems about right to make you and me proportionately the same. I've heard 5 extra pounds per extra inch, and you're 4 inches taller...
my mom is taller than me (but not as tall as you) and was thin back in the day, and her biggest was 9 lb 5 oz. actually, 9,5 was pretty popular for my mom's family, I think my grama's biggest and one of my aunt's were the same. even after my 8 lb 2 oz firstborn, I expected bigger babies someday.. just not THAT big (my second was 9,9 and I thought that was big!)
though I have to say, both my second and this one were in bad birthing positions, and after pushing them out, I think I could take a nicely positioned baby of *any* size pretty easily :)
oh, and the boobs were there since before pregnancy or BFing came into play. back in the day I was a nice little 32D--"little" compared to the post-birth 36E I've got now :P (I think the E stands for 'engorgement'. ouchies.)
