What are your babies measuring at?

Question

I'm 32 + 6 and baby is already 5lbs according to the ultrasound 😳 My doctor didn't seem concerned, but wow, my daughter weighed 6lb 11oz at full term. So hearing 5lbs at just about 33 weeks shocked me a bit lol. What are your babies' estimated weights?
Side note, I do have GD this go round, so I've been really concerned with the size of my baby. I don't want to be induced before baby is ready.

Answer

Those measurements can be so wrong.  Sometimes I wonder why they do them (kind of kidding).  My best friend had GD and was told her baby was huge and off the charts from very early on.  They talked her into inducing at 39 weeks and said she would likely need c-section due to her size.  Baby was 8 pounds 2 ounces and came out just fine.  I was told the opposite, that my baby was dangerously small and needed to come out because my placenta may not be working right.  I allowed them to induce me out of fear at 40 weeks and gave birth to a very healthy 8 pound 6 ounce girl.  It’s crazy that my small baby was bigger than the off the charts big baby.  Try not to stress too much.  I’m not saying to not listen to your doctor just try not to panic about size just yet.

Answer

32 weeks and 3lbs 11 oz

Answer

My first measured over 5 lbs at 34 weeks. He was 9.2 lbs at birth. I didn’t have GD, I just make big babies I guess haha. I will find out where this one is at next week. The ultrasound weight guesses can be off by 2 lbs in either direction, so there’s no guarantee baby will be giant!
