Anybody get a measurement of 6 lb 5 oz at 36 weeks?

If your baby was around this size at 36 weeks, what did they end up weighing at birth? Just got my meaurements today, and curious what she'll end up being. I'm small and her father is huge, so there are a lot of possibilities.

I had my son at 38weeks and weight 5lbs 14oz. The dr checked me that day and told me baby was gona measure around 6.7lbs.

You'll be fine lol.. I was scared, too. I had my first baby 9-7-11.. My doctor said he was measuring big a lot throughout my pregnancy and some days he said I was measuring fine. I had an ultrasound at 36 1/2 weeks that said he weighed 7lb 1oz. I had him at 39w4d and he weighed 7lb 11oz..... He is a very chunky sweetheart now Lol..

Yeah I actually think she's only 35 weeks, given the due date from my first ultrasound, so it seems like she takes after her daddy. Like I said, as long as she's not huge...It'd be nice having a mini-me but as long as she's healthy I don't mind having a chunky little girl :), I'm just nervous about delivering one. This is my first labor and the process itself is already intimidating without adding in a 10-lb baby coming out of my small frame.

At 37weeks my baby was only 5lbs 10oz.. she's pretty small so I'm guessing she will be tiny. I'm now 38 + 3

I thought she might cross the 8 lb mark. I'm literally not quite 5'2", I'd guess an 8-pounder wouldn't be impossible, but if she comes out 9 or 10 lbs I've already told him he's in trouble lol. That's what I get for liking the tall, muscular, broad-shouldered type. :)

With my second daughter she was 7lb. 1oz. at 37 weeks 1 day and was born at exactly 39 weeks and she weighed 8lb. 4oz. at birth.  With my last baby she weighed 5lb 8oz at 36 weeks and was born at 39 weeks weighing 7lb 5oz. So my guess is your baby will be somewhere in the 8lb range.

At 35 weeks I got a measurements of 6.8lbs lol his daddy was born at 35 weeks and weighed 7 lbs so I'm looking at yet another big boy! My first born at 36 weeks was 9lbs even my second born at 39 weeks 2 days was 8 lbs 14oz.

How big was she at birth? Or was she born at 37 weeks?
