Little worried .. overreacting?

Question

Okay so when I had my daughter in 2013, she was big (was 9lbs at 39 weeks)- so I was forced into a c section.. 5 years later, and I’m trying hardest to be healthy & active so I don’t have a “big” baby again, just because I really want a vbac & doc wont let me if she’s too big.. at my 20 week scan, my baby’s weight was already 14 oz.. and I read it’s supposed to be 10oz. Just curious everyone else’s baby’s weight at the 20 week scan.  Thanks!

Answer

I don't think there is anything you can do to control the size of your baby, it just is what it is

Answer

My first was 9.5 at 41 weeks when I delivered vaginally. I didn't gain too much weight, in fact I struggled to gain most of my pregnancy. This pregnancy I'm worried about having a big baby but also know they just come out how they come out. 9lbs shouldn't automatically mean a c-section even if you're small (for reference I'm barely 120lbs and 5'6")

Answer

At 18 and 5 days my boy was 10 oz. so he was prob def 14 by 20 weeks!!!

Answer

My doctor did tell me that women who use protein powders/shakes during their pregnancies tend to give birth to bigger babies. But try not to worry, I’m sure you’re being healthy, and it sounds like baby is healthy and growing strong.

Answer

mine is 12oz at 20 weeks and they didn't say anything about it..

Answer

All my boys ranges from 10-12 ounces at 20 weeks my daughter this time is 9 ounces at 19 weeks and she’s small. I’m used to having 8 lb babies biggest was 8.12 .. it’s out of your control I’m also not gaining weight tho so I’m trying to gain opposite a little of you. I wouldn’t stress my doc said they go through growth spurts at diff times. My last son at 28 weeks measured 34 weeks so they immediately sent me for a scan. At 20 weeks he was in the 90th percentile that scan showed he was then in the 67th so even tho I measured big fundally he had slowed down growing . He came at 38.5 at 8.6 lbs  and 19inches
