DS was by far an easier birth than DD. Three pushes, and out he came. 22.5" long as well.

No, but she more than likely would have been if she was born closer to her due date!

PickleMeThis · 20/12/2018 16:19

6lb 5oz #1 at 38+4
8lb 5oz #2 at 39+4

0lgaDaPolga · 20/12/2018 22:53

1st - 7lb13
2nd - 9lb0 (much, much easier birth though!)

LovesLaboursLost · 20/12/2018 22:57

My second was over 5lb lighter than my first

MissCalamity · 21/12/2018 21:30

No, 1lb lighter, 9 days earlier than DC1.

Kim82 · 21/12/2018 21:33

Mine went:

5lb 9oz
5lb 15oz
6lb 12oz
6lb 7oz

All around 2 weeks early. I only make small babies.

bumblebee39 · 21/12/2018 21:35

Yes just about. They were almost the same size. Pregnant with no 3 so expecting similar weight again

mindutopia · 21/12/2018 21:36

Yes, but my 2nd cooked for 3 weeks longer too. First was 6lbs 9oz and born at 37+5 and second was 8lbs 6oz and born at 40+6.

My 2nd was by far the easiest birth and recovery though (even though both were straightforward home births).

NatureGal · 21/12/2018 21:45

Mine were all lighter
DC 1- 5lb2oz
DC 2- 5lb
DC 3 - 4lb10oz
DC 1 was the earliest at 36+3, with DC 2&DC 3 born at 38+2.
