I was reading a thread that mentioned birth weight being a factor in possibly contracting diabetes later in life.

That led me to wonder how cysters measure up in that department. How many of us had either a very low, low, normal or chubby baby birth weights? Does it relate to us having PCOS? Does our birth weight relate to the severity of our symptoms?

I don't have any of the answers to the above questions, but i am curious if there could be co-relations to birth weight.

i was over 10 pounds but I was over 2 weeks late and a third baby for my mom.

My sugar levels have been fine even though I have PCOS.

i was normal birth weight, however my daughter was born 5 1/2 weeks early and weighed 5 lbs, 9 oz. my OB isn't sure what caused such early labor and delivery...I was not in her care for labor & delivery as I was transferred to another hospital that specialized in premies.

Mimi L

My birthweight was also in the normal range at 7 lbs 2 oz, and I was on time. My dd was also right on time and weighed in at 8 lbs 2 oz.

seaglin

I was in the normal weight range, not sure when i was born becuase I was adopted and have NO clue of anything about my birth except my weight which was 8lbs 12oz. All of my children have been born almost 1 wk late and they were 6lbs 14oz, 7lbs 2oz, and 6lbs 13oz.

Well I was born @ 38w weighing in at 5lb 6oz ... so on the higher side of a low birth weight.

My brother was born @ 30w 2d (approx) and weighed in at 4lbs 8oz (I think, I know it's 4lbs for sure) ... he was kept in the hospital NICU for one month before he was released. Definitely a very low birth weight.

CysterSkye

I was born 2 months early and weighed 5lb.
My son was born two weeks early and weighed 10lb 8oz.

I was normal, around 7 pounds somewhere. But I was a wee bit late (can't remember how much now, I think only two weeks) and my mother had Gestational Diabetes while pregnant with me, just as she had with all of my other siblings. She's now a TypeII Diabetic. I was her smallest baby, but that might have had something to do with the fact that she was 39 and that we were RH incompatible and she wasn't given a shot (if they even had them in '73!) despite having had at least one m/c where the baby's bloodtype was unknown. I nearly died of anemia due to that, but here I am

But that gestational diabetes screwed us all. My sister is a Type I Diabetic, my brother suffers horrible hypoglycemic episodes and needs to be tested, and my oldest brother is HUGE and refuses to be tested for Diabetes or IR I was found IR at 19.
