hello everyone not sure if i am posting in the right topic but i was wondering does anyone know or think that second babies will be bigger ???

i heard they were but i also read that if your baby was over 8:3 then the second would be smaller just not sure???

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

DD 8lbs 9ozs
DS 8lbs 3 ozs

So that end both theories that the second baby and boys are bigger!

My 2nd was 3lbs heavier than my first (ds1 6lbs 4, ds2 9lbs 3). Was slightly worried what size a third would be but ds3 was in the middle at 8lbs 3.

Oh and my heaviest ds2 was 5 days early whilst my other 2 were 2 and 3 days late.
