when do they start weighing?

At how many weeks do they start weighing the baby? They did mine at my 20 week anatomy scan, but that's all. I'm 24 weeks now.

I had to ask them to check when I had a 3D at 27 weeks, and a follow up a at 30 weeks (my son has a dilated kidney). The weights aren't the most accurate, so they usually won't check unless they have a concern.
