Average

Average never seems like a very positive word. Like average grades, average scores, average looks. It sounds so mediocre. Very bleh. Very so-so.

Average is good when it comes to the size of the baby.

Too small a baby may mean that I am not eating well enough. It could just mean that it is just a genetic predisposition. I was not too big a baby although you can't tell from that from my size now. Worst thing is that I may have high blood pressure.

Too big a baby may mean that I have gestational diabetes. It is a lot harder trying to deliver a bigger baby too. Would you rather have a smaller baby passing through the birth canal than a bigger baby?

Average, for once, is a good thing.
