Big baby?

Question

35 weeks 6lbs baby boy 
Is there anyone same at this point with me or was with previous babies? How big your baby was at birth and how far along you were when s/he was here?(At 33 weeks he was 5lbs1oz)

Answer

Both of.my previous boys measured around 5 or 6 lbs at 35 weeks and they were I and a half and 9 and a half pounds. But the bigger the baby the easier the delivery in my experience.

Answer

At my 36 week appointment they told me she was 5-6 lbs and the day before my due date I gave birth to a 10lb baby

Answer

My belly is also looking bigger so I don't really  think 2 lbs difference is possible at this point because my water is in normal range. Actually my main question is, if baby is going bigger does it bring delivery date earlier or not?

Answer

I'm 36 weeks and just found out baby is 5.6 lbs. but they said he's a little smaller than normal and 23percentile.

Answer

Yep same with my DD. By 40weeks she was measuring 9 lbs so they induced me at 40+4, she was 8lbs exactly.

Answer

The estimates are rarely spot on. They can be 1-2 lbs off in either direction.

I was told at 39 weeks with my dd to expect a 9 lb baby. She was 7 lbs.

My ds also measured big and they guessed 8 lbs, he was a bit under 7 lbs.

Answer

My SIL is 34 weeks and her baby is already weighing in at 5 lb 1 oz. obviously she didn't delivery yet so Idk what he will be once born but all babies are different. If the baby gets too big closer to your due date they might look into other options but remember ultrasounds can easily be off by a good 2 pounds

Answer

With my daughter, they estimated her to be 8lbs... she was born 6lbs 1oz. They can be way wrong. After all it's just an estimate.
