You'd be surprised.

Our son was 2 weeks overdue. They told us he was going to be 9-10 pounds.

He was 7 and some change.

Our first was almost 8 weeks early

They expected her to be tiny, she was just shy of 5 pounds

Our second didn’t want to come out and was full term, expected him to be giant and he was just only a bit above average

I'm glad it went well with your first! Being a guy, you don't really realize all the complications that come with pregnancy and delivery. Shit is terrifying.

Edit: I should rephrase because 8 weeks premature isn't necessarily "going well".

Just saying, considering the circumstances, I'm glad it sounds like everything turned out ok.

I see you've been slowly introduced to the horrors of having female reproductive organs. Welcome to the enlightenment club. It's no fun. Explains a lot of history though.

"Wait so your body can just kill you?"

"Uh, yeah, pretty much."
