Baby measuring small?

Question

Anyone else get told their baby is measuring on the small side? This is my 4th baby, little girl, and this is a first for me. I went in today at 26 weeks and 6 days and she told me my baby girl is in the 21st percentile for weight. She weighs 1lb 10oz. She wants to keep a close eye on her and was concerned. Is that weight small for a 27 Weeker?

Answer

I think your baby will be okay. My midwife said she only gets worried when babies are below the 10th percentile.

Answer

2 lbs. 3 oz at 26 weeks but my husband is 6'4" so I kind of expected it already

Answer

Ultrasound a can be off by 2 pounds give or take. If she continues to measure smaller and the placenta doesn’t look like it’s doing it’s job, then start to worry.

Answer

My last ultrasound at 23w4d my girl was measuring small. She was 1 pound 5 oz. She is in 12th percentile. My doctor seemed a little concerned and said they may have to start doing more frequent ultrasounds to keep an eye on her growth.

Answer

My baby girl measured 1lb 11oz at 25+2 and today at 27+4 she was 2lbs 10 oz so maybe she will just start packing weight on now!

Answer

My baby boy was 2 lbs 14 oz at 27 weeks 2 days. 92 %ile 😅😳

Answer

My baby is measuring small too, doctors going to keep an eye on it because everything was fine at the anatomy scan. My first born was small as well and I had to get induced around 37 weeks, the specialist I saw back then said my son would grow better outside the womb than staying in it. I kind of figured that would be the case with this pregnancy as well, so I wasn’t surprised when she told me that. Everything will be fine 😊

Answer

At my last ultrasound I was 24 weeks 5 days and my boy was measuring 1lb 10oz and that seemed small to me at almost 25 weeks.

Answer

My baby has been measuring small my entire pregnancy. She’s in the 19th percentile and my dr isn’t concerned as long as she keeps growing like she has. So far she’s had the right amount of growth for the time that passes each time
