Baby measuring big

mommabear

I went to my 36 week ultrasound today. The baby was measuring 40 weeks in the head and stomach. Measuring 7pounds11ounces.

The doctor said the sizing can be off by a little bit and said even if it was only 7 pounds even I will likely have a 10 pound baby if I wait until 40 weeks and advised me to get induced at 39 to keep the size down if I didn’t want to risk having a c section.

Did something similar happen to anyone else?
