If you already have 2U2
Just wondering, DD was a small baby and was born at 38 weeks. Were your babies similar birth weights? and were they born around similar gestational age? I'm sure that it is just random, but I'm curious.

DS was 5 days early and 8 lbs 5 oz
DD was 10 days early and 7lbs 1 oz
She was a peanut compared to him! and I might add that DS was 2 hours of pushing, a vacuum delivery and i had an episiotomy....and DD was 5 pushes and no tears/cuts at all!
Gotta love the second time around.

DS #1 - diagnosed IUGR (intra-uterine growth retardation) because his head measured in the 98th %ile while his abdomen was in the 4th.
They pulled him before 38 weeks because the risk of mortality rises substantially when they let them go longer than that.
Turns out he was just skinny with a HUGE head.
DS #2 - boringly average. Taken via repeat section at 39 weeks.
Very different weights, gestation, and general body builds.
They're still VERY different physically.
#1 is a bean pole with a giraffe neck and a monster head.
#2 is a chunk-a-monk and on the short side.
Total score: 6 pregnancies, 5 losses, 2 amazing blessings that I'm thankful for every single day.
Not even close!
DS1 - born 33 wks weighed 5 lbs. 1 oz.
DS2 - born 39w6d weighed 8 lbs. 8 oz.
Lets just say I didn't anticipate such a painful recovery for #2 and I'm not so sure my OB wasn't drunk when she sewed me back up!
my first son was born 4w early and was 7lb 4oz.
my twins were born at 38w1d and were 7lb 15.6oz (so pretty much 8lbs) and 6lb 6oz.... there were no issues with one twin getting more or anything- one was just a lot smaller- and still is (10lbs smaller than his twin now)... so you never know!
