We got a lot of comments about LO being huge, big, or healthy. I didn't think she was that big at 8 lbs, 1 ounce. I'm 5'2" so most people thought she was gonna be 6-7 lbs.
-
LO was 7lbs, 6oz. and almost everyone has said how average she was. I think so, too!
-
charlie was 8 lbs 6 oz which is big for me! people said he was big, but i know babies that were born bigger.
olive was 4 lbs 15oz which was tiny... but she was born 5 weeks early so not that surprising and not many comments about her weight.
-
How big he was! He was 8 PDS 6 ounces and I'm barely five feet tall and tiny so he was pretty big for me. Lol. Drs were expecting him to be even bigger though
-
That he was big. He was 7lbs 11oz--I didn't think he was that big at all!
-
No comments really. She was 8 lbs 5 oz, but I am 5'8" and DH is 6'4" so no one expects us to have small babies.
-
DD was 7 lbs 6 oz, so that's a pretty normal size! I'm 5'8 but was carrying really small (consistently measuring at least two weeks behind at every appointment) so I had no idea what to expect. As she was such an average size, no one made any size comments one way or the other.
-
LO was 9 lbs 3 oz and 21 inches... My husband's uncle asked if she walked out, another uncle asked when she starting kindergarten. Ha ha ha
-
6lb12oz- people always said she was small!!
-
People always say the weirdest things, no matter what. I told my MIL that when I was born I was 7 pounds 2 ounces and she said "wow, so you were big!" WTF? Anyway, sorry to thread jack.
-
She was 5 lbs 2 oz at birth, but then dropped to 4 lbs 11 oz. she was born full term so everyone remarked about what a peanut she was. She's 5 weeks now and 7 lbs 1 oz and people think she's a newborn instead of being over a month old.
-
How huge he was. Especially compared to me and even from the nurses (he was 8 lbs 12oz)
-
She was 6 lbs 5 oz and dropped down to 5 lbs something super quick. I'm 5'1 so I don't think people were very surprised she was small, and also, I think they were all distracted with her full head of hair! People comment more now on how small that she is being 4 months and a little over 11 lbs.
-
They said he was a big boy - 8lbs 2oz 21.5" - I'm really petite, pretty big for me I guess.
-
how "good" that was....except he dropped a pound the day after birth so he really was 6lb9oz (at 19.5") for awhile. He rebounded though and was 7lbs12oz at his 2 weeks.
-
@DigAPony: I was 7 lb 2 oz at birth too and it came up with a coworker a while ago who proceeded to tell me how huge I was.
LO was 8 lb 5 oz, 21 inches and everyone commented on how big she was (I'm a little under 5'5). DH is 6'2 though and they anticipated her being even bigger.
-
Most people dont comment much on the weight. She was smaller than I expected at 6lbs 9oz
-
I had the same comments. My LO was 8 lbs 4 oz and because I didn't get huge they kept telling me she was going to be small. Nope!
-
My son was born at 4.5 lbs and people comment on how healthy he is even though he was a preemie. It annoys me! He was always healthy he's just small.
-
LO was 9lbs 1oz, I'm tall'ish (5'9'') and thin, but gained 56lbs thru pregnancy, all belly! Her hair is the biggest talk, then weight!
