DS was 3lbs 14oz at 30 weeks. DD was 9lbs even and full term. DS probably would have been similar in size if he'd been term.

Twin A was 5 lb 15 oz
Twin B was 4 lb 15 oz (born at 38 w + 2 d)
I voted 5 and 6 lbs because they were close enough!

So many tiny babies! DS was 9lbs 9 oz and born on his due date. I shudder to think how big he would be at 42 weeks.

7 lb 12 oz at 39+1 and she shocked everyone-my OB was convinced she wouldn't break 6lbs.

DS was 8'12 at 39&5
DD is still cooking but they are projecting her to be 7'5...which is exactly what E was projected at, so I'm not holding my breath

Dd was 7lb2oz at 40w. Ds is due in a month and is currently about the same percentile as dd was at birth, but my OB said boys tend to be a couple oz bigger. I'm guessing he will be about the same though!

DD was 7lb, even. I get the feeling DS is going to be bigger, but that's just my hunch.
