Size of baby?

Question

I went to my midwife appointment this week at 15 weeks. They have done no ultrasound or measuring and told me my baby is "10oz and 6.5 inches long". I want to believe them but everything app, website and book I have says baby is about 1/3- 1/2 this weight (around 4-5oz) and closer to 4inches. What is right? It concerns me if my midwives were so far off?!

Answer

They might have been counting your uterus. My OB informs me on the size of my uterus, versus baby just because all babies measure differently.

Answer

At 15 weeks my baby was like 7oz, i dont know how long she is because she never let us measure her. Even at 37 weeks i have no idea what to expect as far as weight and length. Shes been bigger than these apps say she should though. Always measuring 2-3 weeks ahead.

Answer

Around 15 weeks, my twin boys were 4oz and 5oz.  At 17w5d (Monday this week), they were 7oz and 8oz measuring 6 days ahead (18w3d).

Answer

And alot of apps and websites state crown to rump size which is head to bum. Your dr may have measured crown to heel
