small baby?

hi! I'm 32w1d. last week at my ultrasound, my baby weighed in at 3lbs 4oz. according to the apps and growth charts, she's fine. my Dr says she's small tho. it has me worried but now they'll monitor her closely by another ultra sound in 2 weeks. what size are your baby's?

At my 35 week sonogram my baby was weighing 4lbs 14oz. So your baby is growing just fine. Mine is measuring small.

The doctors are just estimating n most the time they are wrong they induced my sis in law at 37 weeks cuz they claim the baby was already 8 pounds but she end up only being 6 pounds at birth we were totally lost lbvs

At my 30week scan my daughter weighed 4lb 2oz. That's 5oz less than what my son weighed at birth at 35weeks. She is a chunk.

They can't tell the actual weight it's more an estimate.... If it's cuz your belly is small then your baby is probably just sitting far back.... My friend looked like she was 20 wks prego at 35 wks and he was 7lbs .... Don't worry too much have your doc check again at your next appt just to ease your mind

I had a scan at 32+1 and he was 6lbs but apparently that's normal too. From reading up the scans are not very accurate though so don't be worried. As long as its between the 5 and 95% its fine. X x
