Too fat? Too thin?

Article Abstract:

The average birth weight of a full-term baby is 7.7 lbs. Girls on average weigh 5 ounces less than boys. Hereditary factors, size of the mother, are among the contributing factors to a baby's weight. The size of an infant at birth is not an indicator of the size as an adult.
