My mom knew I was going to be a girl as soon as it got past noon. I was the fifth of five... two sisters and two brothers. Both girls were born in the afternoon/evening and both boys in the morning.
I think I was born at 3 something in the morning, & I was 6 lbs & forgot how many oz's.
I'd have to ask my mom for certain. It's been a long time since I've heard that info.
1:30 AM and 9 lbs, 10 oz. I also was told that I was LONG, longer than my 3 brothers, all of whom were a good size (I was also the heaviest). I can't remember the length, though I know it was somewhat unusual, especially for a girl. So, how come I'm only 5 ft tall now!?!?!
Back then, you stayed in the nursery ward for a couple of days, not like the McDonalds drive-through window system nowadays. The nurses often nicknamed their charges, and taped the card on the bassinet. My nickname was..."Big Sweetie". Yep.
