Hi all, are 2nd babies always bigger than first? My first born (boy) was born on his due date weighing 10lbs10 😆 we are expecting our second child any day now (a girl ) and I'm getting a little nervous 😂

I'm in a very similar situation, DS was 10lb11 almost 3 years ago. 13 weeks pregnant with number 2 now and concerned this one will be bigger too!

My youngest was an ounce lighter. But born three weeks earlier, so...

First 10lb 5oz seven days over. Second 10lb 2oz five days over.

11lb7oz was my first 15 days late
9lb14oz was my second 6 days early
8lb8oz was my third, 8 days early.

So nope, mine got smaller.
All c-sections, thank god.

But I do think its more common for them to get a bit bigger each time.

You can do it!

DS was just under 9lb and 2 weeks early. DD was 6lb 6oz! So no, not always the case!

My 1st was 7lb 8 38+6
2nd 7lb 5 39+1
