My ds surprised everyone by weighing 9lb 1oz at birth. After a long labour he was a ventouse delivery.
I'm now pregnant with my 2nd (15wks) and worrying about what size this baby will be. My friend
keeps going on how second babies are always bigger and I won't be able to push this one out .
What makes a baby big? Is it anything to do with how much I eat or my bmi. I've been eating much healthier since the sickness has lessened but I still have a big appetite.
Also what size of clothes should I buy for baby? I've bought some Next newborn sleepsuits for 7.5lbs but dp says they'll never fit and bought some 0-3 sleepsuits for 14lb. Is there no size in between?
If you had a big first baby was your second bigger?
