How big will my baby be? Will he be as big as they say? Or will he defy all odds and be really little?
Please have a guess and the closest one will win a prize! You may not get your prize for a while though as I'm likely to forget everything in a haze of delirious sleep deprivation!

They said 'very big baby' and '15th percentile' and things along those lines.
He was approx 8lbs two weeks ago.
