When... and how big?

**chickenlittle** · August 5th, 2009, 10:25 PM

My first baby was a girl, born 11 days late, and big at 4.2kg.
My second, another girl, came 9 days early, and was only 3.3kg.
Now I have a little boy due in 10 weeks and am curious as to when he'll arrive, and how big he'll be.

For those of you who've had more than one baby, when did they arrive... and how big were they?

I think it can be pretty random!

DS1 arrived at 41+1 weeks and was 3.75kg
DS2 arrived at 40+5 weeks and was 4.03kg

I find out in a few weeks what #3 will weigh

I agree, it's totally random! Baby comes when baby is ready to come - some need longer than others and some don't need as long.

for me they were all pretty close to or on their due date
#1 - 1 day early 4.18kg
#2 - 1 date late 3.85kg
#3 - due date 4.32kg (induced after labour stopped so she could have gone a few days longer.)
#4 - 4 days late 4.56kg

The middle two were both girls.

Wow Trillian, you have great sized babies!

LOL Thanks Trish! The three 'big' ones were really long too.
