Should I be scared to have a huge baby

[raemama4]

At my last ultrasound I was 31 weeks and my baby was 4lbs 7oz already. Now he's 5lbs and I'm only 32 weeks. Should i be scared???

No every pregnancy is different but at this point baby should start putting on some fat tissue, if its a major concern please contact your physician he/ she may be able to help you ease your concern.

Its not always accurate. If the baby gets to big they'll induce you. I was 39W and 5 days when I had my daughter, on a Thursday the ultrasound tech told me she was barely 7lbs, 2 days later on Saturday I went into labor and she was 9lbs. It was a hard labor but so worth it. I'm 36W  and had an ultrasound yesterday the tech said baby was 5 in a half lbs and was measuring a week smaller then my due date. But my last ultrasound they said baby was almost a week bigger then he was suppose to be. So I dont really believe the stuff they say anymore. As long as he's healthy I'm fine.

They told me my first was going to be a big baby. Had her at 39w 6d and she was only 6lbs 10ozs, they can be off with weight.

I knew someone who was told her baby was 9 lbs and induced her early so they baby wouldn't get bigger. Turned out her baby was only 5 lbs and wasn't developed enough so had to stay in nicu for a week

Whoa. Thats messed up, maybe its best if everyone just let the babies come on their own if its no complications.
