[elisesmum]

Was just wondering if second babies are usually bigger than first my first was 6lb15 and that was two weeks late and was tiny and fitted into tiny baby, so i was wondering if usually babies are around the same size or could i give birth a big baby even tho my first was a nice weight xx

i want to know this aswell i have read 2nd babies are meant to be bigger than your 1st but only by a couple of ounces

My first was 2 weeks early and was 6lb 3oz
Second was one week early and was 7lb 3oz

I,ve heard that second babies tend to be slightly bigger, coz your uterus muscle,s are more stretched so put less pressure on the baby and give baby more room to grow. It can also depend on gender as girls tend to be smaller than boys.

My first was 8lbs my second was 9lbs 4oz and at 33weeks this little man was 5lbs 9oz so he will prob be between 8-9lbs maybe by time hes born at 39weeks x

My first was 5lb at 37weeks! Hope this 1 will be bigger!
My sisters 1st was 6lb 12oz and 2nd was 6lb 5oz so not necessarily bigger!
