I am 35 weeks and yesterday the ultrasound showed my babe weighed 5 lbs 4 oz and is head down bottom up and in position.
WOW!  Jellybean!  Your little one is growing growing growing :-)  I know that it makes you feel good to know the little darling is a good weight though - just in case you go early.

I am 35 weeks and the u/s tech yesterday said the baby weighs 7lbs 8 oz. and I do NOT have GD. This baby already weighs more then my dd who was 9 days late. He is breech and the tech said she doesn't think the dr. will let me go more then 2 weeks without a c-section.

I'm at 28 weeks 3 days and my little man is now 2 lbs 11 oz and in the 60 percentile, with chubby cheeks =D It's amazing how much the u/s techs can make out.. I LOVE it!

Humphhh, I don't know how big is my baby, should I ask the docs for an u/s so they can tell me. I passed my glucose test fine, but maybe I would like to know how big is the muncking

At 24 weeks my guy was 1 lb 14 oz. I go on Wednesday for my next ultrasound and will see then. He is expected to be small due to my meds so we will see. (At 24 weeks he was in the 58 percentile)

That is crazy. I find out tues what is going on. Since I passed the gd test umm my dr wants to see what exactly is going on with the baby and figure out my birth plan. If my dr doesnt' change my due date if I had to make a guess it would be a c-section. My body can't handle delivering a huge baby vaginally. It took alot to deliver my 2nd vag. I just hope he takes me at like 37 or 38 wks for a c-section if that is what happens. The babies lungs are fully functioning so there isn't any concern about the respitory! I feel bad for you move to boston to have the baby. You would be having the baby alot earlier than 39 wks.

I just had my appointment yesterday (31.5 weeks) and my daughter weighs approximately 3 lbs 7 oz. Granted my doctor said she is measuring small. I'm not really sure what average is, but I'm assuming nothing is 100 accurate anyways.

I'm gd free and as of last wk my son is 3 1/2 lbs. I have big babies all my kids were big. I love them chunky! Are you having a c-section! How early will your dr take you?

Get out of here!! That is just a guestimate hun!! But you have totally scarred me because I too have the GD and I do not know how big my fellow is! I failed that 3 hour test by 2 points and I have to poke my finger and do 1800 calorie diet...which I must say, I have not really been exactly strick about. I am 32 weeks and can only hope my boy is not over the top...but with my daughter I did not have GD 5 years ago, but only passed the test by a few points and they told me she was going to be a 9 pounder, well, she was only 6.6 oz! Perfect! So try not to worry if you can. I am starting to walk everynight and going to get serious with my diet! Only a few more weeks to go right! We CAn Do It!!!
