Hey all im just being nosey really! As some ov u may know im 15 wks pregnant, same as nobby! :)
I was just wondering how big ur babies were when born? Also is it true that the more babys u have the bigger they are???
My 1st was 9lb 7oz Then my 2nd was 8lb 13oz and my 3rd was a whopping 10lb 1/2oz!! I am scared stupid im in for an 11 pounder!!! :s lol
I am being kept a close eye on and will be havng a glucose test at 28 wks to check for diabetes but my god i hope this one is smaller!! lol

Well i haven't had any babies, but i weighed 6lb 4oz when i was born, then my sister weighted 6lb 6oz, and my brother weighted 8lb soemthing. From what i've found, the weight does seem to go up a bit with each baby. I feel sorry for you if you do have an 11lb lol, ouch! I'm sure it will be fine though.

My first was 6lb 6oz I'm not sure what my second weighed as they didn't weigh him properly at the hospital they said he was 7lb 12 oz but when he was weighed at the clinic at four weeks he weighed 11lb 7oz and they said no way was he 7lb 12oz at birth, lol the midwife at clinic put him on scales twice and then tried a different set of scales and he was still 11lb 12oz I was in labour for 4 days with him too. He is 27 next month and 6ft 4 and built like the proverbial brick sh*thouse pmsl.

Aww thanx guys, I agree that the bigger the baby the faster the delivery! They tend to help by pushing there way out!
Josh who was 10lb was quite a fast labour at around 4 1/2 to 5 hours, but my god i struggled with his head!! lol
Lets just hope to god i deliver a mnth early and have a 6lb baby!! no such luck! lol

Hey Sue , always nice to meet fellow mums going through it all at the same time as u! :) Didnt u find the home birth quite scary? I like the idea of having that peace and quiet 4 a few hours after the birth! lol
Did u find that the afterpains got worse the more u have??
They hit me quite hard last time! Well worth it though! :)
We have booked a gender scan privately next week to find out the sex as we r so impatient! Did u find out the sex with yours?? xxx
