An interesting fact is that only 5 percent of women actually deliver on their due date, so have no fear: The end is nigh! Another fact is that, on average, babies carried to full term for a first-time mom typically weigh around 7 pounds. If this is not your first time being pregnant, you can almost bet your next one will weigh more.
