Yes, I am thinking seriously about this ... Actually, when I started to ask myself if I want a baby or not, diabetes appeared and the world was upside down. That is why I posted here the question to here answers from experienced people and not especially from doctors...
What I meant to say was that they tend to weigh more. It's exactly like UpNorth explained it. It all is dependent on your control before and during pregnancy.
