baby weights 5.5 lbs at 33 weeks.... normal or no?

Question

Is this a normal weights ? Or to skinny or fat ?

Answer

My SIL had a growth scan at 32 weeks and they said her baby was weighing 5lb1oz. At my 32 week scan my baby was weighing 3lb11oz. So it can be very different for everyone. Plus keep in mind ultrasounds aren't the most accurate at predicting weight. they can easily be 2 pounds off.

Answer

The ultrasounds are not accurate for measuring/weighing baby late pregnancy. They are often off by 30%. You cannot go by them for an accurate assessment.

Answer

My daughter was born 5.3 and 35 weeks

Answer

My son was measuring 5.5 at 36+4. However, he's also measuring behind for being small. They said that was measuring 34 weeks. My husband and I were both small babies. 
So I would say that is measuring on the larger side for 33 weeks.

Answer

It's on the larger size for a 33 week baby. About 2 weeks ahead. My daughter was born 5.5lbs at 37 weeks
