Just wondered as mine was pretty big...

My sister was just 2 lbs at birth though.

ds1 5 11.5 born on due date

jane - they actually use metric here in Aus and then convert just for birth weight to imperial. Poor dh ( english) trying to fit in would tell everyone the birthweight of dd2 in metric and they would ask what that was in pounds and oz.

for you

dd1 - 2740 g
dd2 - 4280 g

DS 8lbs at 39 weeks

Twiglett · 26/11/2004 12:27

I think its funny that we all think of our babies weight in imperial despite the fact that they weigh them and record them in metric and you ahve to ask for a conversion

JoolsToo · 26/11/2004 12:34

I'll always be imperial - feet and inches if you don't mind as well as llbs and ozs - love their mints too

Kangamummy it's OK I can beat you on this one!! Last time we had this thread over a year ago I had the smallest baby and reading through it I still do.

My first dd was 27 + 5 weeks and was 1lb 12oz (small for dates too)

2nd DD was 6 lb 13oz on her due day.

Down I still hold the crown then??
