My first was 9lb 13oz - he was an emergency c-section after 36 hours of established labour - (8 hours of early labour as well). He was lying back to back and was stuck fast. - they had to tug so hard to pull him back out the birth canal that my husband and the aneathsetist (?!) had to hold me down on the operating table to stop me falling off! Disn't put me off having baby 2 only 13 months later. planned section and lighter baby this time though!
My first did look big though, my mum said that it was the first newborn she had seen that looked good in shorts!

When my sister had her daughter the woman in the bed across from her had a baby that was 12 pounds!!!!! She had diabetes. The baby was in the neo natal ICU b/c of complications. He was huuuuge next to the other babies who were all really little. Not funny that he had complications, but very funny to see.
Mum says babies are much bigger these days, 9and 10 lb something are really common weights.
I fortunately produce small babies, neither of mine were over 6 lbs but when i said, Im so pleased I didnt have to push out an 8lber, my mum said theres no difference. it all hurts and long as its not got a great big head and isnt gonna get stuck they all hurt the same. I suppose shes actually qualified to comment not only cause shes a midwife but she had 4 kiddies herself weighing between 6lb and 10lb.
