size and weight of "the package"?

I was so disappointed to find out that the football sized package they removed (included uterus, cervix, and fibroids) only weighed 2 pounds! I was so hoping for at least 10. So now I'm curious:

what was the size and weight of your "package"?

1.75 lbs. But sure got rid of my pot belly!

Even at that - the size was 18 weeks pregnancy-wise. You were "further along" than me.

I don't know yet. I guess I will find out all the details at the postop - scheduled for Oct. 31! Hahahah! Halloween. I wonder if I should dress up as a big ol' uterus!

My (uterus (with a huge mass in it), was the size of a soccer ball. Not sure how much it weighted but, when I went to get my staples out a week after surgery, I was down by 4 pounds.

I don't know how much mine weighed, but it was the size of a large cantelope. At my two week checkup, I had lost three pounds and it hasn't come back.
