I think it differs from woman to woman, but mine were 8lb8, 8lb10 and 9lb12.5 in that order
Praying that this one won't be as big as the last

LOL I bet you don't!! My DD was 9Ib 6oz don't mind if the next one is round about the same size but wouldn't want it too much bigger!

Teenie, my 2nd was 9oz bigger than my first... But 9 days over due (1st was 1 day over) So I think, accounting for the extra weeks growth in the womb she'd have been a little smaller than the first...

My Step MIL had a 10lber for her first and a 7lber for her second...

Just a wee question for those of you who have already had children, was your subsequent babies larger than the one before or is that an old wives tale?

Been feeling pretty cack today, not sure if it's tiredness or not, been sick twice which is rubbish as my sickness was going :mad: oh well their you go not much I can do about it.

Most definitely for me - but I don't think it is always the rule of thumb, my 2 were 8lbs 6oz and then 10lbs 6oz - I am also hoping and praying that this one is no bigger!!!!! have been told though that sometimes the 3rd can be smaller - but not holding my breath on that one :rotfl: only saving grace maybe that I have been much much sicker with this one and therefore not eating anywhere near as much!

Yeah I suppose there is no way of knowing will just see what pops out LOL!

Great scan by the way, you didn't want to know what you were having did you? I wont get a choice, they wont tell you up here it's a nice surprise after all that work but part of me would like to know so I know wether I need to get rid of all of DD's stuff or not!

Morning all,

We all appear to have idiot other halfs at the moment, d!ckhe@ads....

Anyhoo, have my theory test tomorrow, little nervous as I cant seem to do the HPT very well, Im barely passing the practice ones. For those of you learning to drive, what are the chances of me seeing some of the clips Ive practised on already on the actual test? Just so I know that Im clicking at the right time on at least some of them! The others I'll have to hope for the best, Im clicking 2 or 3 times for each hazard to try and get some points at least but I dont want to get done for over clicking. Contrary to belief on the motor section I can see hazards its just the blummin clicking.

Im being a bad mummy today, dd is playing with her toys and watching cbb while I try and practice

I took my hpt about 6 years ago and failed it first time so the second time i went they told me to slowely count to 3 then click and it doesnt show up as "cheating" (repetitive clicks). Low and behold i passed not sure its still the same though.

Big hugs to all those with $h1t OH I know the feeling all too well (at the moment we are fine tho:o)

Also Big hugs to those with spd and other aches and pains.
