SIL had baby William last night and he weighed a leg crossing 11 pounds!!!! Only on G&A and pethidine!!!

[jessicaandrebeccasmummy]

OMG!

congratulations to your SIL - but OUCH!!!! I thought my 7lb 4oz was bad!!!

[arfy]

so the induction worked quite quickly then
congrats to her and lovely name. Was that a first baby

[LucyJones]

I know!! It's the weight of 2 babies!!!

[LucyJones]

2nd baby. The first was only 6lb something!! Induction took about 24 hours in the end I think

[ComeOVeneer]

WOW. My second was 10lb, so I can well imagine that made her eyes water. Congratulations.

[arfy]

blimey
my first (and currently only) was 9lbs 14oz. 11lbs - ouch!

[Rodeo]

Gosh, That's 11 bags of sugar! Congrats to your SIL, love the name :)

[Rodeo]

duh, no it's not, they're 1kg bags More like 6 bags - still a lot though!

[Maddison]

Ouch!!

Congrats to your sil and welcome to (not so little) William, was my DS2's birthday yesterday too...

[sottovoce]

Congratulations! I had a 9lb 13 oz DD and thought she was huge! Well done to your SIL - what a star!!

[AnnElizabeth]

Well done!
My third was 11lb 10oz but (thank God) was a cesarian.
G&A and pethedine only? Give that woman a medal!
Try & get a photo of your babs next to an average sized one, I've got one of Charlie next to my friends 7lb bab & it is sooo cute, you can really appreciate how big he was

[Skribble]

I wish I had got pics as mine was 11lb 7oz, and i always explain that he looked like a 3myh old but people don't get it.

[Skribble]

I mean pics next to another baby.

[AbiGilby]

Blimey, my DS was 5lbs and half an ounce! Your SIL’s DS is over twice that! He’s a month old, and still no-where near that weight!

[QE]

flippin' 'eck!!! and OUCH!

ds1 was 10lb and I know hat you mean about looking like a 3 month old when they come out.

ds4 was predicted to be over 11lb at 40 weeks - soooo glad that they gave in to my pleading to be induced 2 weeks early - still over 9lb even then!

Congrats to your sil - like the name too (it's ds1's middle name!)

[hermykne]

that suggestion by annelizabeth is a great one ! wish i 'd done that

[hotmama]

Congrats - give that woman a medal.

[hulababy]

Congratulations to your SIL!

[plummymummy]

HOW did she do that naturally?! Nuff respect. Ds (first and only so far)weighed 91b 3oz and I thought that was huge. Bet she was shocked as first one wasn't a big baby. Congratualtions all round

[CarmenH]

My oh my! That's a big lad and a brave lady!

[LaFleurStEmilion]

There should be MBE's awarded for that kind of thing (Mothers Brave of the Empire)!!!

Serious respect from a mere 8lb-er!!!
