Which baby was your biggest?

[abdce21]

Just out of curiosity! Had ELCS at 39 weeks exactly due to babies position and they came out at a rather large 9lb 5oz!

Which didn’t really affect me as it was a planned c section, no struggle. I did just wonder if future babies would be bigger or is there no pattern?

Which one of your children was the biggest/was there any pattern?

The third one was the biggest at birth, but she also stayed in the longest.

Really hard to gauge for us.

DS1 - 9lb 12oz. But he was 12 days late (and was an emergency section thank fuck)

DS2 - 8lb 5oz. But he was 3 days early due to planned section.

DS3 - 5lb 7oz. But he was 6 weeks early (different father also)

So if they'd all arrived at the same gestation they may have all been roughly the same, maybe? Dunno!

DC1 : 8lbs 40+10
DC2: 9lb 6 42+1
DC3: 11lb 4 42+2
DC4- 7lb13 39weeks. planned section due to placenta problems (monitored throughout due to that and concerns I would have another big baby)

First 38 weeks 5.141/2
Second Due date. 7.5
Third Due date 7 4

1st. 6lb 8 at 38+2

1st baby - 1 week late (7 pounds 8 ounces)
2nd baby - on time (8 pounds 6 ounces)
3rd baby - 1 week early (7 pounds 13 ounces)

DD1 6lb 8
DD2 7lb 13

I've heard 2nd babies are normally bigger

My second baby was a week+ overdue but smaller than my 1 day early first born. Both girls.

dc 1 , 7lb 7, 41+4
dc 2 and 3 , twins, 6lb 9 and 6lb 2, born at 37+1 by elcs. I suspect the twins may have both been larger than their elder sibling if left to term...

First 9lb 11oz, second 8lb 3oz. Both boys, first one 14 days overdue, second one 7 days overdue.

Weirdly my first boy- first baby- was lighter than my second boy- last baby.
But they were both bigger than my girls. First girl- second baby- was heavier than my second girl- third baby.

1-DS- nearly 10 pounds
2- DD- 9lbs
3- DD- 8lbs
4- DS almost 11 pounds.

Dc1,2 & 3 were under 5lbs or under. Dc4 was 5lbs 6oz so my biggest.

My sons are 40 and 38 now, but born were:
6lb 14oz, 18inches long, a month early
10lb 13oz, 23 inches long, 4 days late

My husband had a vasectomy a year after Son 2. He was 27 when he had that done. We're in our 60s now

1st - 7lb 6oz. On his due date
2nd - 8lb 2oz. 10 days late

My first was born at 34 weeks and was 8lb 7oz - dread to think how big he would have been at full term!

My second was two weeks early and 9lb 2oz.

8lb 12oz
8lb 14oz
9lb 5oz All natural births

8lb 8oz - emergency C section

Baby 1 - 7lb 11 (eight days late)
Baby 2 - 5lb 14 (nine days early)
Baby 3 - 7lb 2 (seven days late)

No reason why my middle girl was so tiny at birth, though I'm a really short lady and she seems more like me genetically than my two other daughters so far.

Mine both weighed exactlybthe same 8lb 3oz
Dd(1st) was 12 days late
Ds (2nd) was delivered on due date

1st 8lb 40+3
2nd 8lb 10oz 39+6
3rd 8lb 15oz 39+6

They are all the same sort of build now, tall and lean in the torso

Both the same weight 6lb 9oz 2 years apart
