Title: Newborn Weight
Post by: candyterrius on January 28, 2013, 06:23:54 pm
How many pounds were you (or your children) when you were born? I weighed 5 lbs 15 oz. I wasn’t born premature. Some people may think it’s under weight, however my mother was a tiny woman who did not drink nor smoke.

I don't know I'd have to ask my mother.  I only know the time I was born.  I was probably within the average.

I was 7 pounds 3 ounces when I was born...mind you I was 3 weeks early...I cant imagine how big I would've been if I was on time or even past due.

I was a pretty big baby, by most standards-- 8lb 8oz!

My sister was even bigger though, 8lb 15oz, so I wasn't actually the easy one to deal with hahahaha!

My daughter was born a week late, 6 lb 4 oz. When she left the hospital, she was 5 lb 15 oz. She had a lot of trouble gaining weight. She is just now, finally, at age 7, about "average" size for her age.

I was a month premature and weighed in at 5lbs. and then lost weight, they didn't think I would survive because my lungs weren't working well and I aspirated some sugar water they gave me.  I grew up healthy though.  My kids were 7lbs. 8oz. and 7lbs. 11oz.  The second was 2 weeks late.       :peace:

I weighed 6-1/2 lbs.  My son weighed 7lbs. 8oz., and my daughter weighed in at 5lbs. 14-1/2 oz.
