Babies weight

[Lisha060708]

I went to my dr. and he said this baby will be about the weight as my last child which
Was 8 lbs. 7 oz. what are your guesses for your babies

[Lisha060708]

Hmm small babies run in the family then, cause my mom had a ten pound baby and two eight pound and a seven. I had a five pound but he was induced at 36 because of preclampsia. And my next was eight seven and this one I feel will come soon so probably more if seven or eight but I hear you with weight I lost 45 lbs and started at 168 but now am 200 I didn't want to gain so much but my family is big so I will just coercer again after the baby

@ Lisha...was that comment for me?  Lol I'm far from tiny. I'm 256. My pre pregnancy weight was 250. I went up to 261 and then lost 5 lbs. Not sure how but I did. My fiance and I were both 6.5 pounds when we were born, idk if Drs go based on that to guess babies weight but he didn't know my fiance and I were both small babies. I really don't know how they can even estimate the weight

Aww u must be tiny, I'm 36 weeks and mine is in the 8 and a half range

I'll be 34 weeks on friday and my Dr told me at my last appointment that my daughter will be between 6.5 to 7 pounds

Hey good luck with the c section tomorrow I hope it goes well, I wish I knew I would be holding my little girl tomorrow

They can do it by ultrasound as well. That's how we found out my lil girl is measuring behind and a tiny peanut. :)

[Lisha060708]

My dr just feels my tummy and he was pretty close with,the last one so I trust him on this one. And that's a big guessing line lol

[mrsreeder2be]

Right now I'm not sure. LOL. My lil girl was measuring ahead, but now she's measuring 3 weeks behind. I have my c section tomorrow. So my guess is between 6-9 pounds LOL.
