Is there any connection between time of year and weight of baby

Just been wondering this. Does the time of year have any affect on the size of a baby. I know there are lots of other factors but just curious

DS born 22nd November and weighed 6lb 1oz. Was born at 38+3 and I had pre-eclampsia.

DD born 20th September and weighed 7lb 11oz. Was born at 40+4 and I didn't have pre-eclampsia.

DD - May - 1 day before EDD - 9lb 12 oz
DS - December - EDD - 10lb 5 oz

So, I'd probably say no (DS was second baby)

DS - April - 10lb 4oz.

Me - October 9lb 10oz.

Are you expecting that winter babies will be chunkier as their mums will have been scoffing stew and dumplings, as opposed to skinny salad-fed summer babies?

I was actually thinking that summer babies would be bigger since we use more energy in the winter. But i supose even then the babies would take what they need before the mum gets what she needs.
