Big Baby?!

Question

At my 34 week appointment today, my doctor told me baby girl is in the 80th percentile 😳 he also said he doubts I’ll make it to my due date {2.22} while I’m thrilled at the idea of her coming sooner rather than later, I don’t wanna have a big baby 😭 has anyone experienced something similar? Did you make it to your due date? How much did baby weigh?

Answer

My son who I’m currently pregnant with at 34 weeks 5 days is measuring like a 37-39 week baby with high amniotic fluid. Midwives, doctor and nurses all agree he’ll be here within one to two weeks so yeah.. lol

Answer

I’m really interested to see what my baby will weigh, currently 35+5 and was told at 34 weeks that baby is measuring at 7lbs 7 oz already, get measured again on Tuesday and will probably be referred to have a growth scan, hoping the measurements are inaccurate because I still have a potential 6 weeks to go 😱

Answer

My first was always showing in the 90th percentiles and I was induced 1 week early and she was born at 8lb 14oz. Did they do an ultrasound to determine size or are they sayinf big baby just on measurements of your belly?

Answer

Why dont you want a “big baby”?

Answer

I just had a growth scan today due to GD and cholestasis.
I’m 36w3d, and they estimated her size at 9lb 15oz. 
Now the scan can be off by 1.5lbs in either direction, but lord! Thankfully, I’m already scheduled for a repeat cesarean on Jan 17th.
(My EDD is 02/05/18, so she is coming early.)

Answer

I wasn’t on track to having a big baby with my first but my doctor didn’t think I’d make it to my due date with my first and I ended up going over and getting induced 😩 lol 
I have the same due date this time around 2-22 and reeeeeaally hope she comes earlier than her EDD!
