How much did your LO weigh when he/she came home?

[Srrme]

Our baby weighs 5 pounds and 1 ounce (as of yesterday) and I'm curious how much he'll weigh when he comes home. They're still expecting him to be there for another 4-5 weeks.

How much did your baby weigh? And how old?

Leo (a 28 weeker) was 4lb 15oz when he came home He was born at 2lb 11.5oz and it took him a while to stop losing and start gaining.
Oh and he weighed 7lb on his due date xx

Gaby was 3lb 12oz.

She was 4lb 8oz when she was born but lost a lot of weight before starting to put it on again. Can't believe she was ever that small looking at her now!

Greg was born weighing 1lb 9 ounces, and he came home weighing 8lbs 8 ounces. So basically a normal baby size. He was born at 25 weeks on March 14, and he came home 3 weeks after his due date on July 16. So about 20 some odd weeks in hospital.

He's 6 now and weighs 43 pounds. Pretty respectable for a micro preemie. Oh, and he is already in size 7 clothes due to height.

Don't believe everything they say about them being doomed to be short, skinny, runty things forever. He isn't the biggest kid in his class, and he definately isn't the smallest. The Dr estimates he will be about 5'10" altogether.

Findlay was 5lb 6oz when he came home at just over 2 weeks old.

He was born at 5lb 7oz at 35 weeks and now at 20 months old he weighs around 13 1/2 lbs (his poor weight is nothing at to do with him being prem though)
