Mamas with multiple kiddos

Katerina

If this is your second or more pregnancy, and you had late growth scans for your previous babies (32 weeks or after), when did you end up actually delivering and how much did your baby end up actually weighing? I just had a growth scan yesterday (33w3d) and they said baby girl was measuring 5 and a half lbs already! My first daughter I never had any late scans, but she was born at 39w6d at 7lbs 1oz and 21.5inches. So I’m curious if I may go into labor early with this one if she’s already 5 and a half lbs this early, if it’s true they gain a half a pound a week from here on out! Also, neither me or my husband were big babies - I was 6 and a half lbs and my husband was 7 and a half lbs, so I really don’t expect we’d make a big baby over 8lbs. Just curious if any of you have any information to share on whether you went early having been told your baby’s weight was somewhat higher at scans in the early 30 weeks!
