I wonder if this baby is going to be really big ?
So I'm only 13 weeks with my 2nd, I'm thin, haven't gained too much weight and I still wear my regular pants. So no belly yet (just love handles, lol) but here is a thing, I feel the baby move and kick all the time, it started around 10 weeks, but since 11.5 weeks kicks are constant and strong, now at 13 weeks the kicks are strong enough for my DH to feel them too, last night baby was moving and kicking like crazy , DH put his hand on my belly and he could clearly feel the taps.
I felt my first at 12 weeks , but I don't remember feeling her so much so early on and I remember very well that the first time DH could feel my DD kick was when I was around 16 weeks.
I was always in so much pain with my DD starting at the end of my 2nd trimester (she was 7lb 14 oz at birth) bc she didn't have much room and her movements and kicks used to literally hurt me and sometimes make me cry.
So now of course I'm am worried that this baby is going to be huge . Do you think baby being this active and feeling the baby so early on is an indication that the baby is/will be big?
I googled and some say yes, some say no . The sonographer at the NT scan said so far it's a normal size 2.5"

I read somewhere that you feel everything sooner during 2nd pregnancies and beyond. When I was reading the article they didn't mention anything about the baby being bigger.

Re: I wonder if this baby is going to be really big ?
As I told you before, we are having the exact same pregnancy. 
I felt my first at 14 weeks and this one at 10 weeks. Now I am 13 weeks and this baby is kicking.
Since my first was 11 pounds, 8 ounces I have been scared to death of this one being bigger. Only time will tell. Maybe we can start a soccer team.

Re: I wonder if this baby is going to be really big ?
I felt the baby early on as well and this is my second. I was feeling a good amount of kicks by 13 weeks. This baby had really strong movements from then on but things slowed down in third trimester and he has actually been pretty mellow. He has certain times during day that he is really active but not as bad as my first DS. I thought he would be big too, but I just had a sono and baby is only measuring 7lbs 9oz at 40 weeks. So not so big.

Yep, he came early as my August 17 baby.
We must be in the same schedule.  What hospital are you delivering at? Maybe we can meet up.

I'll be at Stony Brook around the same time. I'm trying for a VBAC, but with the size of babies in my family, it's unlikely.
