I was my mommy's 30th birthday present.....I was a nice, average 7 lb 10 oz, born 3 days before her b-day in '72. Now I should have had whopper-sized babies because I was decent size, I am a taller woman, and my husband was huge by twin standards.....he was well over 6 lbs as was his brother. But my daughter was born at 38 weeks (induced due to her tiny size) weighing 4 lb 13 oz. My son was born at 36 weeks (due to me having preeclampsia) weighing 5 lb 3 oz. He might have been fairly big had I made it to term.....I had an u/s at about 32 weeks that estimated he would be between 7 1/2 and 8 1/2 lb at birth.
I might add, once tiny always tiny at least in my family. My daughter is now 3 and she only weighs 26 lbs and is just over 3 feet tall.....such a petite little girl. My son is now 16 months old and weighs 21 lb and is 30 1/2 inches. His 5 month-old cousin outweighs him!!!!!!!
