Not true for me. Although, I suspect it would be had my placenta not been slowing down with my second pregnancy.
Ds - 3.3 kg
Dd - 2.8 kg

My first was 9pounds, my second 7lbs and my third 6lbs 10oz.... somehow mine get smaller as I go???
DD was much bigger than DS. DS was 3.035kg born at 41 weeks, whereas DD was 3.85kg born at 40+3.
DD1 born 8 days overdue was 4.04kg
DD2 born on due date was 3.91kg
Wow, so interesting seeing how some babies get smaller as you go along and some get LOTS bigger as you go along!! I suppose it does depend heaps on the gestation the baby reaches also before you pop huh... !!
I wonder if my prediction (and the MW's) will be right and it will be at least 9pds..... I'll find out soon :lol:
I was 41wks when I had DD.
My second was smaller as well
DD - 9pound 6.5oz @ 40 + 5
DS - 8pound 11 @ 40 + 6
Think it was about 300g difference
Nope. DS was 8lb 9oz, DD1 was 7lb 12oz and DD2 8lb 6oz. And out of all of them, DD1 who was the smallest, was actually the most overdue!
Ds was born 40+1 and he was 6lb 13 (3090g) - DD was born 40+6 and weighed in at 6lb 9 (2970). So she baked for 5 extra days and weighed 4oz (120g) less. She was shorter too by 5cm but they both had the same sized head (which counts lol)
DS was 10lb 3oz (4635kg) born at 38+2 and DD was 8lb 11.5oz (3955kg) born at 40+4 so smaller second time round for me.

DD1 was 7pd 5 born at 40+7
DD2 was 8pd 3 born at 40+2
So yep bigger!
Not long to go now Renee i'm getting excited for you!
Mine was exactly one pound smaller (6pd8oz compared to DS1 who was 7pd8oz) but then he was also born 4 weeks early and 1cm longer than DS1. So I think if he'd hung on a bit longer he would have been bigger.
i had Dj at 40+11 and vic at 40+10:
No, my second was almost 1kg lighter than my first. Dr's said they were both very big babies before they were born.
DS1 was 4.3kg. DS2 was 3.4kg.
At least I got to use the smaller clothes I had bought when I was pregnant with DS1.
DS1 - 7lb 2oz, 48cm (42w1d) labour was 21 hrs
DS2 - 8lb 2oz, 52cm (39w6d) labour was 1hr 44mins
DS3 - 9lb 15oz , 59cm (41w2d) labour was 2hrs 10mins
Westy you need to up date your signature thingy :)
Yep, DD was slightly bigger. DS was 7lb (3.195kg) and DD was 7lb2oz (3.250kg), both 50cm long.
Mine got smaller! All 10 days 'over'.
1 -9lb12 oz (Girl)
2 -9lb 91/2 oz (Boy)
3 -9lb 2 oz (Girl)
Mine were all over the place.
DS1-6lb 13oz
DS2-7lb 1oz
DS3-5lb 15oz
DD1-180grams:angel:
DD2-6lb 7oz
Was definitely true for me. Ds1 was born at 38 wks and was 7 lbs 14oz (3.8kg) and ds2 was born at 41 and was 10lbs 4oz (4.66kg). Ds2 size was a shock to everyone. No one expected him to be that big!
DD was born at 41+1 & was 8lb 13oz
DS was born at 39+2 & was 7lb 3oz
Good luck with your upcoming birth! I'll be back on the Gold Coast before the end of the year (living in a similar area to last time) so I'll text you if you have the same number & we can catch up! :)
Update! We had a baby girl last week...... 10lb 6oz !!! (4.7kg) Born 40+6wks :o :o still trying to get my head around how big she was on those scales! Although she's still tiny to me, being a newborn and all :D
She's got beautiful chubby thighs and cheeks, just gorgeous!!
So there you go.... for me.... 2nd time around MUCH BIGGER bub!! ;)
dd was born when she was ready at 3.190kg in hospital
ds was born when he was ready at home at approx 3.3kg
so i dunno, at 2 mars bars difference between them i just say they were about the same:D
