Hi
I think it also depends on your body size etc and take some guidance from your doctor. My two babies were almost 11 pounds each - 4.8kg and I had them both naturally (albeit with an epidural). First time I needed ventouse/suction (and took a while to recover). Second time, no intervention (and healed much faster). Stitches for both. I agree with the above that the predictions are all just a guess. Both doctors I had got the weight prediction wrong.
