  • Yes. Miles was 8lbs 15oz and 22 inch long

    Emilia was 8lbs 2oz 21 inches long and was in preemie clothing for the first few weeks. Miles went straight to 3-6m clothing.

  • My kids were EXACTLY the same size at birth, 6 lb 8 oz.  Ben was born at 37w3d, Sarah at 40w0d.
  • DD was born at 5lb. 15oz at 38w 5d.

    DS was 7lb. 2oz. at 39w.

     I think 2nd babies are bigger too.  Usually.
     

  • Ah yes, I forgot height. I don't remember how long they were exactly, but Tristan was longer than Rylann.

  • Almost identical, DS  7 lbs. 3 oz. and DD 7 lbs. 2 oz., both 20 1/2 inches long.
  • Yes Ben was 5lbs 15 oz and Kate was 5 lbs 2oz
  • Emmie was 5 oz. bigger than Ben(and only one day later). But, i had GD so that's prob. why. Throughout babyhood, Ben has always been bigger than her at the same point, though. However, she is a bigger toddler than he was. Didja catch all that? It's confusing ME!

  • Ethan was 7lb 13 oz, Bella was 6 lb 8 oz, and Maile was 6 lb 10 oz. However, Ethan was born right at 40 weeks, and the girls were born around 38 weeks.
  • I only have one, but I know I weighed 7lbs 4oz at birth as did my little brother.  My littlest brother was 7lb 8oz...

  • Heck yes!  DD was born at 37 weeks and was 5 lb. 6 oz. and 18 3/4 inches.  DS was born at 39 weeks and was 8 lb. 1 oz. and 23 inches!!!!!
  • Yes, but DS was 2 weeks early and DD was 4 weeks early.

    DD was 6lbs 11oz 19in

    DS was 7lbs 2oz 20in

    I think if she'd gone longer she'd have been bigger.
