Yeah, it's not always accurate. I'm also measuring 3 weeks ahead so they're doing a growth scan just to confirm my baby's weight. He's such a big boy!

At 32w5d my baby weighed 4lbs7oz the ultrasound tech told me that that's the average weight for how far along I was.   Hopefully they're a bit off on your baby's weight! I think that's kind of big for 31w6d.
