I turned 17 a month before i had my son. There was a 5 year gap between his father and i. Bevan weighed 7lbs 11 ozs and was 56cm long 32cm head circumference. My daughter was born when i was 21, there is a year gap between her father and i. Cooper weighed 7 lbs 11 ozs also, was 54cm long and 34cm head circumference. Cooper was 8 days early and Bevan was 7 days late. Both natural births and they say the second is faster, they lied...lolol. My labour with Bevan was 12.5 hours and Cooper was 16.

Aw they sound tiny! Ok mine were:



7lb 14oz, boy, I was aged 23

7lb 12oz, girl, I was aged 25

8lb 3oz, boy, I was aged 30



Can't remember measurements but all were chunky babies with big heads, even to the extent that they were "keeping an eye on it" pffft they get it from their dad lol.



Both boys arrived in the afternoon whereas my daughter kept me up all night arriving at 4.51am, she sure wanted to make her entrance into the world LOL, was born on her due date and has been making up for it ever since.



All 3 were also born with no use of pain relief. I was soooooo lucky!!

Quoting Marilyn :

My husband was 37, and I was 40 when our first and only child, a boy, was born in 2001. He weighed in at a whopping 5.520kg !! (approx 12.14 pounds I think). He was 58cm long and his head circumferance 37.5 cm.The placenta alone was about 960 -980 grams. (can't quite remember, but that equates to almost 2 pounds if my calculations are correct. He is now 8 and a half and often mistaken for 11 or 12 ! A tall boy !!

Wow good work, I thought my girl was big at 4.785kg! That's awesome :)

Thank you Elisha. 4.785kg is not to be sneezed at either ! Well done!

My husband and I were (and are) both 24 by the time our daughter was born. She was 6lbs 2oz and our first. So far she's our only, but we do plan on giving her a couple siblings in the future!

I was 20 when I had Alayna; she was 8lbs 5.5oz. I was 25 when I had Alycia; she was 7lbs even. And I was 28 when I had Alexis; she was 7lbs 12oz. There are 4 years & 9 months between the first two, & 3 years & 1 month between the last two which means there are 7 years & 10 months between the oldest & youngest. Hubby was 22 with the 1st, 27 with the 2nd, & 30 with the last one.

I just had my first baby 4 months ago, I'm 31, hubby 32. My son was 2 weeks early and weighed 9.5lbs and 20.5 inch long. I'm going to have another in the future, Hopefully start trying when my son is about a year and half and maybe a third. I would like to have my children before I turn 36, so not sure if we will end up with a third.

My one and only son was born 3 weeks early and he was 10 lbs, 2 oz. I was 18 when I had him and my husband was 17.

Theresa - posted on 12/13/2009

Both my husband and I were 37 when our son was born. He weighed 5 lbs 3 oz.and 18 inches at birth. He had moved into the breech position the previous 2 weeks. The day we took a stress test ended up being his birth date (SIX weeks early) due to the results not looking favorable for a full term pregnancy. I had to have a cesarean birth.

While he started out small at birth, my "baby" recently turned 7 years old and more than made up for it. He's about 75 lbs and 4'6"!

I was 34 when I had my first son who weighed 8lbs 4oz and 38 when I had my last son who weighed in at 7lbs 2oz. I was on the high risk list for both due to age but both pregnancies were relatively easy (with a minor cyst and kidney infection with the first)...What was really memorable about both my deliveries was that they were easy, peasy, lemon squeezy!!! 2 hour labor with the first and 1.5 with the second...I dilated so quickly, there was not enough time for an epidural.

Lindsay - posted on 12/13/2009

My husband and I were both 28 when we had or daughter. She weighed 7 pounds 10 ounces and 20 inches. No other kids yet, we are planing number 2 in 4 years.

Hi,

I was 28 when I had my first pregnancy (2005) in which I had identical twin girls. Being twins they weighed just under 2.5 kg each. I am currently pregnant with our third child, not twins this time around and I am due on the first week of April 2010. We wanted to leave at least a five year gap as handling two children at one time was enough for us. And we wanted to wait until our girls where alot less dependant on us and knew how to do many things on there own.

I was 31 and my husband as 35 when we had our first. Our son was 7 lbs 11 oz and 19.5 inches...he was 9 days late. I was 33 and my husband 36 when we had our second who was 7 lbs 8 oz and 19.75 inches...born only 4 days late. There was about 2.5 hears between the two kids.

My last son I was 27 and he was 7 lbs. Keep in mind that my first son was two weeks late, my second son was a week early, my third and fourth son were a month early. There is almost three years between my first two, almost four years between the middle two, and almost four years between the last two. A total of 10 years between the first and last.

I'm 23 and had my baby girl in July 09 weighing 10lb 9oz, 53cm long, 38cm head (c-section needed after 11hr labour as she was too big to even drop down) My man is 31... we are probably going to try for a wee boy in two or three years :) hoping the next one isn't as big so I can try for a natural birth :)
