    I have always wondered what weight were other peoples babies.Its one of the first things i ask.Also if you have more than one was there much difference in weight.Like 1 baby was 6lb and next baby was 10 lbs.My ds 1 was 8lb 12 ozs,ds 2 was 8lb 10 and ds3 was 9lb 1 so not much difference there between them.

    I think I can beat those stats

    First Son was 9lb 11oz
    Second Daughter 10lb 10lb
    Third Son 11lb 15oz

    All were V Births and last two were without any pain relief. My wife is only 5 foot 3 so as you can imagine we were all impressed with the size of these babies.
