DS1 was 9lbs and DS2 was smaller at 7lbs 11.

but ive been measuring slightly big each appointment this time and at 33 weeks it feels like there is no more room!

The surge of big babies on MN is freaking me out!

DS 1 was a very normal and respectable 7 4
DS2 was a very scary 12 11
DS3 was a slightly less scary 11 1 1/2

I had a cs with the last two .

Ledodgy, you're very consistent.

I should add that my niece's first two babies were about 8lb. Her third was 6lb 2oz followed a few minutes later by her fourth baby, weighing 8lb 5oz!!!!
