Mine did get increasingly heavier, but births also got easier Smile

Mine have got smaller regardless of gender so far

Dd 6lb 12oz at 42 wks
DS 6lbs 2.5oz at 40 weeks

I'd read so much on MN about how second babies are bigger and got DS massive baby grows (0-3m Blush) for the hospital and was laughed at by the mw's when I told them I thought he'd be massive as he was the second baby. This time I've bought newborn upto 7lb baby grows and vests, which I bet will be too big too!
