As I'm a curious little one, am wondering what gestation and how much your lil one/s weighed.
Brendan: 30+1 weeks 1545 grams (82%ile for gestational age)
Tristan: 34+3 weeks 3090 grams (off the top of the chart for gestational age, 25%ile for actual age)
Maria was 34+4 weeks and was 2.050kg
Sofia was 34+6 weeks and was 1.800kg
N was born at 33 weeks 4 days @ 2350grams and was on the 75th%ile which is what we were told, we also got questions asking if she was further along, but when you are charting you know your dates and all her early scans said the same, I just grew a good sized bubba :D
Imogen was 810grams at 27 weeks +5.
At 2years +5 she now weighs 9.6kgs...
I found this information which I really interesting, it shows the average weight for gestation, I found the same chart or very similar versions in a few different locations, no wonder they were asking if she was a couple of weeks further along as N's weight was between the average for a 34/35 weeker as was her length :D
Gestational age... Length (cm)........ Mass (g)
22 weeks........... 27.8cm ...........430grams
23 weeks........... 28.9cm ...........501grams
24 weeks........... 30cm ...........600grams
25 weeks........... 34.6cm ...........660grams
26 weeks........... 35.6cm ...........760grams
27 weeks........... 36.6cm ...........875grams
28 weeks........... 37.6cm ...........1005grams
29 weeks........... 38.6cm ...........1153grams
30 weeks........... 39.9cm ...........1319grams
31 weeks........... 41.1cm ...........1502grams
32 weeks........... 42.4cm ...........1702grams
33 weeks........... 43.7cm ...........1918grams
34 weeks........... 45cm ...........2146grams
35 weeks........... 46.2cm ...........2383grams
36 weeks........... 47.4cm ...........2622grams

It's great to see that chart, thanks Beema!
Sam was 36 weeks exact - 2.48kg and 48cm
And they were telling me he was going to be huge - yet he's below the average for his gestation.
He's certainly made up for it now - over 12kg at 14 months old.

It's really interesting to see the weight chart like that! Thanks Beema :D
Brendan and Tristan were weighed two weeks ago...
Brendan 12kg (3yrs) and Tristan 6.5kg (8 months).
Yeah I think it really helps understand what is the average size for each gestation, hopefully this one is a fatty boomba too ;)
Angus was 800grams at 25+1 weeks
According to the chart he was a bit of a fatty :)
Isabelle was born at exactly 36 weeks and weighed 3550gms and was 49cms long....so a bit of a chubber by that chart!! pmsl
She's 6 months old today and weighs 6.3kgs
wow those with micro premmies that must have been SO hard! 25 weeks :o I am in awe!
wow, mine were little
Remember that the weights in the chart above are the average, as in 50th %ile ;) Someone needs to make up the bottom 50% and someone needs to make the top 50% ;):
Exactly :):
Just bumping to see if anyone else wanted to add their bubs.
Also what their current weight is :D
My David was born at 27 weeks and weighed 1032g.
He's now 10 years and weighs about 43 kilos for about 1m45. He's BIG now! ;)
DD's current weight is a whopping 11.8kg @ almost 21 months :D
WOW he was a great size!:
Beema, Little Miss is doing so well now! I need to get some digital scales which give and accurate reading for Brendan.
Hello Sally!
Yep, they did say that he would have been huge at term, at least 4 kg...
I'm sure that his weigh has helped him a lot in his first months!
Had Angus weighed today 7.64 kgs :dance: 11mths 1 week (8 mths corrected).
Oh WOW Rosebud, he is doing so well!!! Almost 10 x his birthweight, I reckon that milestone will be worth a cake to celebrate!!!:dance::dance::dance:
WooHoo go Angus!! I'm hoping Tristan has cracked the 7kg mark too :D He's weighed on Friday.
DD's stats:
Birth 2.405kg above average for gestation (34+1 weeks) and on the 3rd percentile
7months 7.5kg on the 50th percentile
Beema - I think that celebration cake may just be his birthday cake! Everyone was so proud of him at NICU follow-up clinic today. I'll have to write up his story one day, just brings me to tears everytime I read his discharge summary.....
Sally - Hope Tristan cracks the 7kg mark! Go Tristan Go!
DS1 - 34+6 - 1.9 kilos 41cm
(normal should have been 34 weeks........... 45cm ...........2146grams)
DS2 - 41+2 - 4.58 kilos 58cm
(normal should have been 42 weeks........... 51.5cm ...........3685grams)
At the ages of nearly 7 and four, they are 1cm apart in height (the older one is slightly taller) and DS1 weighs 20.0 kilos, DS2 weighs 22.4 kilos... and they both wear size 7 clothes. DS1 is a tiny meeny, DS2 a whopper...
Hmm, Charlie was 1287 at 28+6 weeks.....he was off the charts too!
Hope this newly baking one is also a good size, but we won't need to find out until he's born at 40 weeks......lol
My 1st son but second baby was born at 36 weeks and he weighed 2500g, we spent a week in special care and as soon as we got home he put on so much weight in the first 2 weeks he was out of newborn nappies.
Our 2nd son was born at 20 weeks and weighed 196g, its not on the chart but I was told at the time that he was quite small for that gestation.
But I think I just have rather small babies as my first was born at 40wks exactly and weighed 2900g and my 4th was born at 40+6 days and weighed 2842g and 50cms.
Thanks Rosebud! Find out tomorrow!!
I like that thinking!!:
A&X&Me, From the charts I've seen the average weight at 20 weeks is 300 grams :hug:
My DD was 29 + 6 weeks and weighed in at 1707g. She was a biggun for her gestational age according to the charts. They had told us that at hospital as well.
She is now 71/2 months and on the home scales has just hit 7kg. She has a muffin top belly and lovely chubby cheeks. We often call her our little buddha.
Just got home from speech group and CHN.
Tristan has cracked 7kg! He is now 7040 grams at 9 months old, up from 6560 grams at 8 months. :dance: He is now 67.5cms tall too.
Way to go, Tristan!

Nixon was 33+3 weeks and was 2.296kg (5lb 1oz)
Tyron was 38+3 weeks and was 3.450kg (7lb 10oz)
that chart is interesting i know many 40 week bubs that weighed more than 3.5kg!
At "almost" 4 Nixon weight 17.8kg and is approx 106cm tall! (almost 8 times his birth weight) he is decevingly heavy!
Nixon is tall and a brilliant weight! He's doing so well now :D
That'd be because the chart is based on the 50th %ile ;) some bubbas need to be above and some below hehe.:
So we had an ultrasound at 26weeks and this bub is measuring at 918gms!! Hopefully he is continually growing and going to be huge by the time he is born in a couple of weeks (hopefully at least 28 weeks).
As Sal said in the earlier post - Charlie was 1287gms at 28+6weeks. He has just turned 18months (15months corrected) and weighs 12.5kg - he's a beautiful big buffa!!!
That is great news Sally :hug: his weight will be a really bonus :hug:
:o Wow!! Charlie is doing great, he is biger than DD now :D
The greatest packages can also be the smallest :)
Fingers crossed for wee one to keep cooking Sally :hug: And Charlie is doing SO well!!
I know this is an old thread but I thought I would add my 4 premmies.
L - 36+1weeks 2880g he is now 8 and weighs around 20kg
E - 35 weeks 2210g now 3yrs 2mths and weighs 14.5kg
I - 28+1 weeks 1045g now 2yrs 3 months weighs 9.6kg (still petite)
M - 25 weeks 920g now 14mths and weighs 5.8kg (my tiny boy)
M was a good size for a 25 weeker (my dates where spot on and early u/s confirmed) but he still had quite a hard journey the NICU and has had weight issues.
I just got Brendan's notes and he was recorded as being in the 52nd %ile not the 82nd %ile not sure how I got that mixed up lol.:
Updating my two now...:
Brendan is 4 and 13.9kg and Tristan is 22 months and 10.3kg.
Meara was 36 weeks and weighed at 3.28kg and was 51cm long. So I had a big bubba as well. My DS2 was born at 38 weeks at 4.4kgs and 57cm long :o so well off the charts
Meara is now 2 years 4 months and weighs 15.5kgs and DS2 is nearly 10 and weighs 49kgs so he is still a big boy but he is tall with it.
