How much did you weigh when you were born?

I weighed 1 pound 6 ounces. So I was a preemie. I was supposed to be born in March but was born in November so during that time I was in the hospital until March. I had a lot of problems.

I was the same, I was 1 pound as well. Nearly died, I wasn't finished developing and came out without a mouth so I have this huge scar on my neck where I was fed by tube. Stayed in an incubator for months. I was born in nov and was going to be in janurary. I'm fine though, no major defects or anything.

I consider myself lucky. There are babies born lighter than that and have debilitating mental defects.

I have no clue. To tell you the truth, I'm a little surprised that birth weight seems to be common knowledge judging by this thread.

2 pounds and something, born a month early :/ I'm lucky too though, I was born with yellow fever or something and could have ended up autistic if I hadn't received the blood transfer that I did.

I was a premie, but I still weighed around 3 kiloes. I was premature by 1.5 month, so I had to stay in an incubator the first 24 hours after I was born, because babies born prematurely usually have some issues with their lungs (around the 'age' I was born, at least)

Do you mean jaundice? It's very common in babies and nothing terrible nowadays.

The breathing issue could be why you might have ended up autistic. Lots of premies have issues with oxygen, and can get brain damages that range from mild to severe (autistic tendencies to vegetable state). My sister's a midwife, so I know a bit :lol:

All my doctors tell me their glad I don't remember the stuff I went through when I was born. I'm not scared of needles probably because all of the tubes, etc that were in me. I was told I was going to be blind, crippled, deaf, etc. Only bad thing I have is my vision I have to wear glasses or contact lenses.
