A member asked:

My sister was born 8 weeks early and weighed 2.5lbs. is this a average weight for a baby born that early?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Early baby: I may have answered this before but just in case - My daughter gave births to twin girls at 32 weeks and there combined birthweight was a little less than 5 lbs. They are now 8 years old and growing just fine. All of the nursing personnel in the early newborn babies ward had experienced that in their own children and are superb at their job.
