DS weighed in at 9lbs 7oz, and 23 inches tall - delivered via the old fashioned route on the c-section table; turning up in nick of time evidently inherited from DH! Local surgery's drive to make everyone think metric making no progress here...

janeybops · 24/02/2005 20:19

Allycat - impressed you only had gas and air. I caved in and went for pethidine too. Would highly recommend it!!!!!!

DS was 6lb 7oz but 3 weeks early.
Everyone expected me to have a big baby as I'm more than a little on the large size myself - so everyone was shocked when he was only a little one!

DD was 9lbs 10ozs, 10 days late.

Me and my sister were both 10 and a half lbs born and her 3 kids were all over that, so when I called her to tell her I had had dd, she said "9lbs 10, that's not a baby, call me back when you've had a 10 pounder !"

rivers · 24/02/2005 21:16

DD was 1lbs 11oz (born at 26 weeks).

Both my ds's were 8lb 12oz - first born at 39 wks and the other at 41 wks. Thankfully both came via the sunroof as I am a mere 4ft 11.5" and a size 6/8 with non-childbearing hips!!!
