Can we say GDM, anyone???

there was an 11 pond baby born when I had my own (8lb 14 oz biggie). It was shocking to see how much older the 11 pound baby looked. There was a 4 pound baby in the nursery as well (these were stable, sick babies, mine was on infection watch). I can't imagine what that poor woman's spine must look like. Probably thinks she has lumbar lordosis! and 12 kids!

I hope she was given the option of a tubal ligation before they did that c/section AND that her religious beliefs don't prevent her from agreeing to end her childbearing.
