Ive heard this too. Do they know why the second is generally bigger??? Now I'm nervous coz dd was 9p. Ouch for the next one!! Eeeek

eek i hope this isn't true!! my DD was 9p 11oz... I hope this one isn't bigger.. i was actually hoping she will be a bit smaller!

But not by much.

Totally wrong for me

My Ds was 8 pound 8 and my Dd was 6 pound 10.

They both arrived a few days early

ds1 was 3.7kg (3 days overdue) and ds2 was 4.2kg (9 days overdue) so true for me

i think it all depends on the person and baby. dd1 38wks 7lb11oz 47cm, dd2 39wks 10lb9oz 52.5cm, dd3 37.5wks 7lb7oz 47cm. baby #4 due in 3 weeks and after scans 2 weeks ago, we think about 8lb. no reasons for dd2 to be so big, i suspect gestational diabetes as i failed first test, but passed seccond, but other than that, she was just a big girl.
