Is my 4th going to be bigger than my other children were at birth?

I just want to hear from others and get their opinion on this. I already talked to my dr about this just a little bit. I am 32 wks and 2 days with my 4th baby. My dr estimated the baby to be about 5 1/2 to 6 lbs by now, judging by my weight gain, and baby’s size and length. My first 3 babies were quite large. My first boy was 14 days late and weighed 9 lbs 6 oz. My second, which was my daughter, was 10 days late and weighed 9 lbs 4 oz. My third, which was my second son, was 3 days early and weighed 8 lbs 9 oz. Is it very likely that this baby, which is a boy, could be just as big or even bigger than my other 3 were? My dr said she will induce me by 39 wks.

  • Since they are going to induce you at 39 weeks he is more likely to be smaller than the others. I would bet money that he will be smaller than the others were.

  • My kids got smaller with each birth. Well..it actually went 8 pounds 10 ounces, 9 lbs 3 oz, 8 lbs 2 oz, 7 lbs 9 oz. I only had a c-section with the biggest one. The rest were easy after that! LOL

  • usually your baby will be around the same size, there not any way to tell but to keep measure it every visit. congrats

  • mabey you should stop cranking out kids (just a thought)
