Curiosity? What did your babies weigh and did they get heavier?

[adellewebster]

Hey guys. Just curious what your babies/subsequent babies weighed? My first was 6lb1 second 8lb9 now due in 5 days and wondering what size she may be.

1st was 10lbs 3
2nd was 8lbs 10.

1st was 7lb 6oz (3 days early)
2nd was 9lb 2oz (11 days late)

6lb 10
8lb 6
6lb 4

First was 10lb 13.5oz, then 8lb 6oz (both girls) then 4 boys, 10lb 11oz, 9lb 12oz, 9lb 6oz and 9lb 6oz (last one was 2 weeks early rest were more or less at due date)

1st was 9lb 8oz (one day early)
2nd was 9lb exactly (four days late)

5lb15oz
3lb2oz

6lb2 DS
5lb 8 DD

10lbs
12lbs

First 7.2
Second 7.3

In order: 5lb 1oz, 5lb 5oz (premature), 6lb 13oz (closest to due date), 6lb 5oz, 5lb 6oz. They were all classed as IUGR (4 below 5th centile, 1below 10th) but in all honesty I think I just incubate small babies. Dh was only 5lb 6oz & I was bang on 6lb, we were both about 2.5 weeks early.

7lb 6oz born at 42 weeks

10lb 14oz

7lb 11oz girl
7lb 13oz boy

7lbs, 5lbs 15oz, 4lbs 5oz, 6lbs 10oz.

DD1 9lb 9oz @ 40+6
DD 2 8lb 11oz @ 38+1

I thought of course they got heavier as they had milk several times a day.... then I realised

Baby number two was 1.5 oz heavier than the first and the last was 11 oz heavier than the second.

I think this is all irrelevant as it matters if baby was early or late etc.

8lbs 12oz
9lbs 5oz

Am I the only one reading this with a at how many heavier babies there are?
I’m slightly panicking now as 37 weeks with my 3rd

Me too! My second was heavier but later, so likely to be. I think probably it's gestation that makes the difference, rather than birth order.

7lb 7 at 39+4
7lb 4 at 40+ 5
7lb 8 at 41 weeks

So all much of a muchness! DC2 was measuring small through my whole pregnancy and DC3 was expected to be much bigger!
