I had a similar problem My first child was 4.2 kg, I had a normal delivery but with a vacuum's help! my second was 3.6 kg and it was a normal delivery with no problems. My 3rd a baby girl (2 months old) was 3.935 .. I don't want to scare you, but I need to tell you this, because I wish I had known, and someone had told me before.. My delivery was complicated due to shoulder dystocia (a problem that happens with big babies- small moms) and she was stuck for 1 min. and has Erb's Palsy in her right hand.. It was a traumatic experience for me.. Thank God she started to move her hand and elbow recently... So we know the nerves are not completely damaged... But it still needs lots of physiotherapy ... To avoid this heartache if I had known I would've had a C section :( I hope no one will have to go through this thing.. Good luck with your delivery... All the best ..

I would not recommend anyone to go there, from my very bad personal experience.. I don't want to go to the details yet as I have made an official malpractice complaint. I will just say my baby girl's hand has been injured due to the inexperienced doctor. and she suffers from erb's palsy (google it) In order for her to be able to move her hand (close to normal) she will need 2 surgeries before she reaches 9 months. each costs 100 thousand dirhams. Don't make my mistake and try to save up on the hospital ... avoid any heartache and look for proper hospital.. I wish all the pregnant ladies all the best ... health for you and your babies...
