Re: I was reading my What to Expect When Expecting book...
LOL LOL my especialist told me to throw those books away and a lot them should not exist, and that they could be dangerous. I had a concern about the baby weighing 4 ounces at 15 weeks. THe book said the baby weight should be a 1.5 ounces. So, I was freaking out!!!! he said, that 4 oz at 15 wks was above average and that was good. The book is Your pregnancy week by week.

My doctor told me at my last visit that he knows the doctor who supervised that book very well. He was quick to add that he is a lunatic as well!
