So im a ftm 25w 2days and i went to the doctor and they said my little girl is two pounds. Knowing how curious i am, i asked if thats the normal weight for a baby at my stage. She said its at 67% on the rate chart. What the heck does that mean????!!!!????

My baby girl is 30% so that means 30% of baby's are smaller than her and 70% are bigger, which means she's on the small side Forsure.. Your baby is 67% so a little on the bigger side but not bad :)

It means your baby is bigger than 67 out if 100 babies that age

Well what my OB told me is that the normal average is 50% ... my baby is at 25% which means shes a little smaller then she should be but she said they don't worry unless she falls under a 10%....
So i'm guessing your baby is a bit bigger then supposed to be.
You should ask for a better explanation from your dr though.
Different people will tell you different things.

It means your baby is in the 67 percentile of all other babies being that weight. it's normal, don't worry about that.

Means ur lo is slightly above average higher size higher percentile baby would be when born they should give u percentile like that for height weight and head circumference gives u an idea of how baby is growing

Its a line on a chart which is given.  Where if it stayson that line is can ddetermine the weight of the baby. Can also show how the baby is developing

Check on the app... they told you how much the baby should weight... but everything is just an estimate of the weight because they can't know for sure...

I know that... but what exactly does that mean?
