I know this is probably dumb and I should know it but do babies always get bigger with subsequent pregnancies. Mine so far have. 8lb 6oz, 9lb 7oz, 11lb 1oz. but never diabetic. Just curious. Thank

No, but if you typically have bigger babies, then the next one will probably be big too. My first was 6#8 oz (but born 2 1/2 weeks early!), next was 7#11 oz., last was 7 #4 oz.

It USUALLY follows a similar pattern.
But, you know- every pregnancy IS different.
The baby's father determines the size of the baby for the most part. If he was big &/Or had other babies that are big, then that is the pattern.

Um, mine were just 6lb 12oz and 6lb 15oz. So, while yes they did get bigger, they weren't as big as yours! Wow~ that's incredible that you had an 11 lb baby!!! Good luck

no they do not always get bigger with each pregnancy.
normally the first is the smallest, but not always.
and 11 pounds is fairly large for a baby!!

My mother's did and so have a friend of mine. I can't think of another example.. It doesn't always happen, but it definitely happens a lot.
