Heather - stay positive mate!!! My mum was one of those twiggy stick girls when she was pregnant with me, most of the time she didn't even look pregnant! But she delivered all four of us no problem. I was an 8lb'er, my brother a 10lb'er and the other two I can't remember - but no stitches!

All of my babies were small but John and I were bigish babies. Elijah was 5lbs15oz and Marisa 6lbs10oz. We were both over 8lbs, but John was a premmie at 7mths as his mum fell down some stairs and he came early. His weight was a corrected birth estimate I think - but if the way he eats now is any proof, I reckon he would have been double!!!
