I think so.

#1 - 41.5 weeks, 32 pounds, 8 lbs. 7 oz.
#2 - 40 weeks, 30 pounds, 7 lbs. 9 oz.

Not sure?

Gained 29lbs with my first and he was 7lbs 15oz at 39 weeks
Gained maybe 40 with my 2nd and she was 7lbs 4oz at 37 weeks

OMG...I'm reading through all the comments and can't believe how much I gained compared to everyone else! @rachiecakes: you made me feel a little better about my weight gain!

I gained over 50lbs and my LO was 8lbs 8oz. I'm 5 feet and usually weight around 105...I was HUGE and my body is still so damaged from carrying around all that weight

Not really. With LO 1 I gained 30 lbs and she was 7 lbs at 40+6. With LO 2 I gained 18 lbs and she was 7 lbs 7 oz at 39+5. I was extremely ill with both, more so with the second, and fought hard to gain every lb.

I gained 26 pounds and Sadie was 7lbs 10oz. I think both numbers are average.

I gained 13 lbs (it was 17, but then I caught the norovirus 1 week before labor/delivery and lost 4 lbs in a few days, it was HELL). DS was 7 lbs 4 oz.

Don't know yet. I gained 40 pounds with #1 and he was 10 lbs 9 oz. I'm 31 weeks pregnant with another boy and have gained around 21 pounds so far. But I've got GD this time so my diet is different. Even so, I think I was gaining less anyway and last time I retained a lot of fluid. We'll see how big this one is.

I don't think so. I gained 12 and LO was 8 lbs 6 oz.

No. I gained 50 pounds and had an average size baby - 7 lbs 14 oz. Plus he was 9 days overdue!

I gained the exact same amount with both pregnancies, 32 lbs, but had babies weighing nearly a pound different - 7 lbs 6 oz for the first and 8 lbs 2 oz for the second. With both babies, I only lost about 12 lbs in the initial few weeks so it clearly wasn't all going to baby! I think I'm just destined to gain 32 lbs during pregnancy regardless of the baby size!

ETA: DD1 was born on her due date and DD2 arrived 8 hours after her due date, so pretty much exact same gestation time for both.

@sandy: one of my closest friends has two little ones and she is 4'11. She weighed under 100 lbs pre pregnancy and gained 50 pounds each time!!!

@sandy: don't feel bad! I was 116 when I got pregnant with DD and gained 70 pounds!! DD was only 7 lbs13oz
This pregnancy I've only gained 30 and I'm 39 weeks today.

@Rainbow Sprinkles: I'm with you! I feel like I was 8 - 12 weeks pregnant for a little bit and BAM! I woke up and Now I'm huge and ready for this baby lol

I gained just under 30 lbs with my first and he was 7lbs 4oz. I gained 20 lbs with my second and he was 7 lbs 13 oz. So not really in my case?

I don't think so -

1 - 15lbs - 35 weeks - 6lbs 4oz
2 - 20ish lbs - 40 +1 - 7lbs 12oz
3 - 20ish lbs - 39 + 2 - 7lbs 6oz

Those are good sized babies for me who is normally 95-97lbs 4'10"
