By how many pounds was the ultrasound wrong?

Question

How many pounds did your baby weigh than from what the ultrasound estimated?

Answer

Very curious about this myself

Answer

Estimate with my second was 8lbs. He was born at 7.11lbs. 
This baby is estimated 7lbs and I'm 39+6 currently so I'll try to remember to update once she makes her arrival lol

Answer

My ultrasound tech said the estimates can be off by a pound.

Answer

I was induced before my due date with my second because they said I was carrying 13 extra pounds of amniotic fluid and he was going to be an 11 pound baby and I wanted a vaginal delivery. Induction went beautifully and he was a healthy 8 lb even little boy

Answer

Estimated 10lbs + & he was born 7 lbs 6 oz lol but In the doctors defense it was very hard to measure baby due to me having extra amniotic fluid (Polyhydramnios) but I am mad they induced me which ended in a csection after 48 hours @39 weeks because I wouldn’t fully dilate from the medicine. I went through all of that just because they “thought” he would be too big to push out and he was under 8 lbs  and I really believe he would have come by himself. ULTRASOUNDS ARE NOT ALWAYS RIGHT.
