    First girl was 8lb 2oz (2 week overdue)
    Twins - boy 6lbs 15ozs, girl 6lbs 10ozs (delivered 2 weeks early)
    Latest girl was 7lbs 10ozs (2 weeks overdue)

    All of whom are thriving (and driving Dad mad with their antics:D)

    They were expexting me to have a 10lb baby cause i was so big.They weighed baby when i was 7 months and he was 7lb so they kept an eye on me and said they wouldnt let me go over a certain weight.BUT luckily he was going through a growth spurt but he calmed down and he was 9lb 1 born.

    wife had c-section ....

    Twin A 6lb 1oz
    Twin B 3lb 15oz

    damn doctor has a lot to answer for - dismissed wifes concerns of tiredness, headaches...etc as 'being a 1st time pregnant new mother' when all along she had pre-eclampsia (her resting blood pressure is very low so when it became high it wasn't high based on 'normal' charts....doc didn't pick it up...we were very lucky the wife took things very easy over the last 4 months!

    the little one finally home after a couple of weeks in care unit and already 5lb 15oz now!
