6. My girls were 8 lb 8 oz and 9 lb 12 oz! Very sweet, but not at all petite!

:D

7. That's great, because bigger babies sleep through the night sooner.

Relax though, the weight gain will go slower now.

9. Tell that to my big babies.

They didn't get the memo!

10. About sleeping or about growing?

My big babies used to go through a quart of milk each when they got home from high school track! They're all taller than me now, but they're still my babies.

11. Sleeping.

My son, born at 10-lb, 9-ounces had trouble sleeping all night until just this year - and he's almost five.

My second daughter, born at 9-lb, 8-ounces, is a good sleeper now but was a terrible sleeper as a baby.

12. Yikes - you must be approaching zombie status!

I was lucky with mine. They were all good sleepers except for the last one who had terrible colic. Now they give colicky kids Peps cid and they're fine.

13. I had trouble sleeping for years myself -

struggled with insomnia that was exacerbated by getting up at night with the kids. I definitely went through several years feeling zombie-like.

Things are better now. They sleep better and I use Ambien when I need to.

15. And don' t they usually

add a pound a week in the final month and beyond if the pregnancy goes long? I've never been pregnant but that's what I've heard from others who have been.

19. They can.

16. Mine either, LK was 8 lbs 5 and grew fast, and he didn't reliably sleep all night until he was four.

And he was frikkin enormous (20 lbs at 4 mos, 32 lbs at a year)

8. I don't know, but...

I delivered a 40-weeker who was 10-lb, 9 ounces!

Also, if this weight estimate is based on an ultrasound, relax. Those can be off as much as a pound or two (either way, though!).

14. I was born a month premature

And weighed almost 7 pounds.

17. Sounds like baby girl

will be nice and healthy at her arrival. Will she be the firstborn in your fam?

18. I was born 3 months premature, weighed 2lbs 15oz.

Quickly dropped to 2lbs, 1oz.

Thanks to the marvels of 1972 technology, I survived and have prospered. I can only hope to continue to do so. I appreciate life and living, despite it all. :)
