I carefully inquired about this size of this guy and was surprised when she said that her guess is that he's more L- XL than XXL. She said it's hard to tell because I'm on the thinish, tallish side, but he should be about 7 1/2 lbs at 40 weeks. I left thinking nothing of it until I mentioned the visit to my husband.
"What did you do?" he asked.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, obviously you aren't eating enough... the LM is going to eat this kid for breakfast."
"I'm pretty sure that at this point food doesn't have a lot to do with it, and besides we are talking about a "normal" sized baby here, and since I'm the one who has to squeeze him out, I wouldn't mind if he was on the average size, that shit hurts!"
"I think you need to eat more..."
"If we are playing that game, I hope whenever you have a kidney stone it's over 8lbs."
Karma is a bitch.

I ate every single thing in sight when I was pregnant and my kid weighed 6lbs. At age 2, he weighs 25lbs. He's tall and skinny and eats like a horse. Some kids just are that way no matter how much you or they eat.
I say enjoy the easier birth and forget the rest!
That kidney stone line made me laugh out loud, literally. I hope he's smallish too. Katy's second was smaller than her first. Fingers crossed for you.
My second was smaller than my first. It happens. Good luck with the birth.
