Abstract
We introduce a gaussian probability density for the space-time distrib ution of wormholes, thus taking effectively into account wormhole inte raction. Using a mean-field approximation for the free energy, we show that giant wormholes are probabilistically suppressed in a homogenous isotropic ''large'' universe.
