does height/size affect delivery?
a couple of people have come up to me at work today asking how im doing. one woman told me her daughter is my height and carried the same way i am and her water broke 3 weeks early just because there wasn't any more room for the baby in the womb. i'm only 5'1" so i am on the small side and carrying all in the front.
has anyone ever heard of height/size affecting delivery?

I don't think so. I'm 5'3 and this kid is stuffed up in a ball underneath my ribs!
I'm getting a scheduled c section on Sunday since she has no intentions of moving

I'm 4'11 and DD was born at 39w4d.
The size and shape of your pelvis relative to the baby is important. Your height is not.
