birth weight or birthweight? 1 or 2 words? - Kiki


Posted: Jun 09, 2010

I've seen it both ways.  Are both ways correct?  TIA

well... - Trying to help

[ In Reply To ..]
I checked with the merriam-webster dictionary and it doesn't recognize birthweight nor is it in my OB/GYN word book. So....I would type it with 2 separate words and I can't find reference to birthweight.

HTH

I don't get this whole weight thing. There are 16 ounces in a pound. How do you transcribe 124 and 3/4 pounds? When the doc said 212 and a half pounds, I put 212.8 lbs because there are 16 ounces in a pound and half of that would be 8 ounces, but it was changed to 212.5 lbs, which to me says 212 pounds 5 ounces.

"State Certified" Birth Certificate
