2 pounds 10 ounces but chunky?!

So I went to the doctor last week at 30 weeks and they said my baby weighed 2 pounds 10 ounces. I went today at 31 weeks to get my 3D ultrasound done and he's so chunky even had a double chin!  How is It possible he weights only 2 pounds but is really chunky?

It's probably just saggy skin.. Like a puppy with excess skin. The skin is stretchy and growing so he isn't chunky lol quite the opposite! He doesn't have fat in his extra skin yet :)

He's fine!! At 28 weeks my son was weighing 3pounds 7 ounces. I have another sonogram in 2 weeks to see how much he weighs, I'll be 34 weeks by then
