I am used to seeing plenty of research and studies center on millenials, but recently, there have been lots of studies released that  focus on the pathology, health and well-being of first born children.

And of course, as a first born myself, I am fascinated.

Here is a sample of the few I found:

First borns are more nearsighted (CBS)

First Born children are more likely to be overweight (ILF Science)

Birth of a First child can make parents unhappy (CBS)

First born children feel more pressure to achieve (Pacific & Standard)

Interesting huh?
