Generally boys can be bigger, but not always. A friend of mine had a DD who was about 8lb5 I think, then she had her second not long after I had my first and he was 8lb13, but then her next baby, also a boy, was a smidge over 8lb. And with my own family, Mum had bigger girls than she did boys (I was nearly 10lb and my sister nearly 11, but the 3 boys were 4kg or under). And then I know women who have had decent sized babies for the first two, prepared for a big/bigger third baby and then had a tiny one! I have a friend who is 14wks pg and her first was 8lb4, her second was 6lb9 and she's not sure what to think this baby will be!
