Big difference in mine.

PorpentinaScamander · 19/12/2018 21:59

Yes but he was 10 days late. The midwife said if he was on time he would have been less than 7lb by her estimate so would have been smaller than the first.

10PollyPockets · 19/12/2018 22:00

No my 2nd was 1lb lighter, but 1st was born at 42 weeks and 2nd was 38 weeks, so about a months difference in baking time!

autumnboys · 19/12/2018 22:02

No, DS1 was the biggest by about 1.5lbs, born at 41weeks. The other two were both in the low 7lbs at 38 & 35 weeks respectively. Ds3 might have made it past DS1 if he's had another six weeks to cook, I suppose.

BobDobbs · 19/12/2018 22:05

Yes, but he was born at a later gestation. The birth was much easier too, despite him being bigger.

Greggers2017 · 19/12/2018 22:06

DD was 6lb 5oz at 12 days late
DS was 9lb 5oz at 4 days late
I'm now pregnant with number 3 I'm hoping they don't follow a trend 😳😳😳

sparkleandsleep · 19/12/2018 22:06

Yes
7lb2 oz
9lb 8oz
10lb 1oz

First two were on their due date and third was over a week early so I am very grateful she didn't cook even longer Smile

Harebellmeadow · 19/12/2018 22:06

Yep, a good kilo more, so 2lbs roughly. But i myself had a starting pre-pregnancy weight a few kilos higher, and a more meat based, protein rich diet, rather than being vegan pre-DD1. So that explains the difference.
of course a vegan diet is better and kinder and not necessarily lower in protein, its just that mine was. Looks sheepish.
