Petite babies from petite women?😔😳💕

Question

I don't feel like I'm growing at all😔 I feel like she is though! I hope she is... last week when I went in (32 weeks) they told me we were measuring at 30 weeks. I know petite women have petite babies...both me and my brother were 5lb babies out of my 5'1" mother. I'm 5'5"...I have another anatomy scan next week just to make sure she is okay, though they think it's just because I'm small in general...it just worries me. 😔

Answer

Congratulations! 
I don't agree with petite ladies have smaller babies as I was slim when I was pregnant and my little boy was 10lbs witch they predicted he was going to be 8 lol do not always correct. I hope everything goes well ❤️

Answer

Oh, your baby might not be petite lol I'm 4'11 was 128 with my 1st baby at 39 weeks my tummy looked tiny like yours and surprise!! 22 inches long and two oz away from being 8lbs, baby was cozing up to my spine lol

Answer

I'm 5'5 as well! I always measured 2 weeks behind. 
I gave birth to a healthy 8lb 4oz babygirl! 
I was in labour and nurses couldn't believe I was there to deliver (once she dropped I looked even smaller too xD)

Honestly the way you carry had nothing to do with their size

Answer

They told me with my first baby I measured amost 4 weeks behind and that he'd be small like I was when I was born (6lbs). He was 8 lbs lol You never know. As long as you're healthy and they're not worried about baby then it's all good 🙂

Answer

My 95 lb friend had a 9lb baby it did not look like it at all. She even measured small. 
I measured small and had a 9lb 
Then measured big and had a 6lb 
Nothing is guaranteed

Answer

I wouldn't worry.  Honestly some babies are big some are small.  I'm very petite as well.  My first was 6 lbs , my second 9 lbs.   I'm measuring 2 weeks ahead with this one.  I was a really small baby... as long as the baby is healthy I wouldn't worry about the number of lbs.  Half the time they are wrong about babies weight! If the doctor isn't too concerned I wouldn't be either!

Answer

My cousin is 4'11" and she had an almost 9lb baby. My sister is 5'1" and she had a 8lb baby. I'm 5'2" and we'll see what mine measures at birth.

Answer

I'm 4"11, dress size 6-8 with my first pregnancy I was measuring 3cm behind the whole way through, got told by the midwives if be lucky to have a 4lb baby and that i needed to start eating more, I went over my due date by 6 days, but was still 3cm by 40weeks + 3daya when I say my midwife, my little (not so little boy) was born on Feb 3rd weight 7lb 12oz, I had hardly any waters and was just all bump, sometime the midwives make you worry over nothing. 
(Picture is of me full term 40weeks)

Answer

I am tiny as well and I had my daughter the day after her due date and she was 8 lbs 7 ounces! Small women can make big babies the doctors all wondered where she hid inside of me lol 🙈
