Baby's weight?

[Koey07]

I went to the doc today had a sono done they told me that my baby was 5lbs 12oz three weeks ago he was 3 lbs 13oz so he gained almost 2 lbs I have 4 kids my oldest weighted the most at 7 lbs 8oz the smallest 5lbs 11oz the other two were in 7lb range I think this kids maybe the biggest!!oh I'm 33 weeks 1 day due June 14th anyone else kids this big the app say he should only 4.5lbs

That's true but the feels heavy!!

Remember that they are only guessing the weight of your babies when using the ultrasound. I have heard of lots of people that say they are having large babies then have small babies.

Depends on your doctors office. Some offices give a quick growth u/s at every appointment. Every time I have an appointment they take measurements via u/s and give me an estimated weight.

I'm surprised he was always a week a head but with my other kids I didn't get as many sono done Bc I had no health problems now I have hyperthyroidism So I get scanned every 3 weeks I actually lost 10 lbs in the beginning of pregnancy so I could imagine what he could of been weight now!!

Baby measurements were small, and therefore had to do a scan to confirm those measurements - which in fact turned out were smaller after the actual scan. He doesn't weigh that much either. Now I have 3 scans per week, plus daily check ups at the hospital for babys movements and heartbeat as the movements have reduced for the past few weeks. It really is distressing. :-(

How are you guys getting these Mrs_AR. I am only gett 1 witch was at 20 weeks. I will have no clue what my babyS weight will be until birth.
Mrs_AR what made Drs suspicious about your baby not growing before they gave you the Scan?

[Mrs_AR]

Oh my little one is under the tenth centile and he's not growing much at all. At 32 weeks he is still 2 lbs 12 oz. Doctors are worried and have booked me in for a fetal specialist scan. Are you ladies doing something or eating something I am not? Please advise

4 weeks ago we were in 54% -for growth and last week at 33 weeks were at 78% with 5.4 lb wright....not Gest. Diabrtes. What is scary is I do have GS, and if I can't control Blood Sugar, he can grow abnormal large belly, use up all amnio fluid, and come early....Having another ultra at 37 weeks and they will probably induce then

I am 35+1 and when I had a scan at 34+2 my wee woman was weighing in at 6.7lbs. That's the weight she should be at 36+6 so she's a big girl. I have to get another scan next week as I am high risk (baby isnt) but she is looking very healthy and doctors are happy. I am very small but my husband and his family were very big and my first came out at 9.3lbs 13 days overdue. She was also very long at 23 cms when I am only 5ft 2. So looks like this wee one is trying to beat her sister! I was tested for GT and it was normal so if all that's been ruled out then you sound like you're just having a  healthy little chunk :) the good thing is incase something went wrong the baby is carrying a good bit of weight to help them. Also my first slept so well because she was that little bit bigger.

Yep when I was 32 weeks, the baby weight was 5 pounds 5 ounces.... the follow up growth scan will be at 36 weeks :) so I'm looking forward to see how much she's going to weight on the 5th of may

Lol big baby. The last weight I was estimated for my little man was 3lbs at 30+2 I believe it was. I have an apt friday so I'll see what they say his weight is again during that apt.
