Just wondered as mine was pretty big...

My sister was just 2 lbs at birth though.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

DS1 6lbs 4oz - 3 days late
DS2 9lbs 2oz - 5 days early

Was a bit surprised at weight of ds2 - thought he would be bigger but not by that much!

Missy1985 You now hold the crown for the smallest baby 1lb 6oz @ 26 weeks

4kids you are in 2nd place for the next smallest baby at 1lb 7oz @ 27 weeks

And in 3rd place is rivers DD was 1lbs 11oz (born at 26 weeks).

Mine were pretty ordinary compared to some of these - ds weighed 6lb 2oz and dd weighed 9lb 1oz, mind you, my great-nan did better - she was a tiny woman (4ft 9in), and she had 13 kids, all the 'natural' way, the smallest weighing 9lb 3oz and the biggest (my grandad) weighing 11lb 4oz

Shock

Both my 2 boys have been large
My first wee boy (ha ha) was 9lb exactly
My second son weighed in at a whopping 11lbs 7oz
he skipped newborn clothes altogether measuring 58cm at birth and is now wearing 12-18 month clothes at 6 months (gorgeous but huge!)
