I'm interested in the difference in weight between births with different partners.
My DD was 6lb 7oz at 38+4.
Wondering how different this babies weight might be.
Any others experiences?

I've been a surrogate and carried babies that are nothing to do with me genetically so there has obviously been a wide range of weights but I do find it very interesting talking to friends who have had surrogate children for different couples using their own eggs and finding such a range of birth weights and length of pregnancy. I can't recall the actual weights but I know the range was huge.

That said, I am sure there are woman who have had children with the same partner but had a range too.

No personal experience but I was 6lbs6oz, brother was 7lbs3oz and youngest 9lbs9oz. All same Dad (or so she says Wink)

Which is clearly why I am the favourite child Grin
