Well I guess my mum is normal after all, she has her antenatal cards (1983 and 1990, plus come of my vaccination cards), I fond them while helping look for a document - I found out some interesting things off them too. e.g. Mum was 5 ft 6.25 in and 11 stone before she had us kids, 13 st 9 after but last it before the next one and she has the same blood group as me. I do wish we had our growth charts but I know my brothers was lost before he turned 5 - never saw mine :o(( Paul - I wouldn't know but imagin it's like passing a camel through the eye of a neddle!! (or pushing a planet out of your backside.)

yes I have kept some of the info. Might have passed it on to the kids now though. I do still have my weight card from when I was a baby. (And that is a LONG time ago!) Ann Glos

Hi Lunar Yes, I have kept my ante-natal records from when I was expecting my son. He was premature and I had pre-eclampsia so it's quite interesting to read his weight etc! Mandy :)

Paul, it can only be sexist if you men can push a baby out of your vaginas - which you can't!

Have you kept any of your antenatal / maternity notes or cards? or things like vaccination certificates?
