2. I believe I was 6 lbs. 7 oz.
My mom dieted when she was pregnant with me because she didn't want to get too fat!

4. So was I!
My mother didn't diet, but lost 27 pounds every time she was pregnant from morning, noon and night sickness -- 9 months of it.

8. 5 pounds, 6 ounces
Edited on Fri Jun-04-04 02:33 PM by Madame_Bovary
I was full term and only weighed 5 pounds, 6 ounces. I have grown quite exponentially since then however, I would like to express a caveat of disdain in that my mother has admitted that she smoked heavily while I was en utero.

The facts about were not known to her at that time regarding the ill effects of smoking. This is one of the worst crosses that she has to bear; I know she suffers from knowing what happened on account of her smoking.

Anyway, here I am, 5 foot 7, 150 pounds. No, I am still trying to get through college, but I won't blame that on any deprivations suffered en utero from Mom's heavy chain smoking.

Ah hem....when I had my son, I wouldnt even taken an aspirin. He is a healthy 7 pound 15 ounce young man who also has grown appreciably; he is 14 and is now as tall as I am.
