Curious about baby’s size?

Question

So I’m 33w3d and I have only gained 13 pounds so far this pregnancy. I’m just wondering how much of that is actually baby and how much are other contributing factors?(placenta, fluid, etc.) I guess I’m just nervous about baby girl being small is all🥺 first pregnancy I gained 25 pounds total and she was born 7lbs 2oz for comparison/reference

Answer

Your weight gain is not indicative of babies size. 
For example I've lost weight with all my pregnancies and have has 7+lb babies, my current pregnancy is running the same, I'm down 8lbs and baby is on track to be 7-8 lbs

Answer

I’m 33w+4, and I’ve gained 19lbs so far overall but literally none in the last month or so. But every OB appointment my fundal height measurement is on track. I have an ultrasound in a few days, so we’ll see for sure then how he’s measuring. My OB isn’t concerned at all anyways.
Last pregnancy I gained 22lbs overall and my daughter was born 6lbs12oz

Answer

I have gained 40 lbs with my first 2 pregnancies and babies were 7lbs 11oz and 8lbs 7 oz. I lost all but 10 lbs each time.
This third pregnancy, I'm 35+2 and have gained 26 lbs so far. But I started 20lbs heavier than with my first pregnancy... so I figured I may not gain as much this time.

Answer

At 33 weeks my baby weighed and estimated weight of 5lb5oz, Just depends on your body really. I always gain sooo much weight I just can’t help it 😅🥴50+ pounds, and my baby’s have only been around the 8lb-9lb range.

Answer

Idk. Baby could be big or small. With my 1st I gained 35lbs and he was 7lbs 14oz at 41+2. My 2nd I gained 10lbs and she was 8lbs at 42+2. I’m 35wks with #3 weighed 283lbs at conception got down to 268ish and now I’m 273lbs. I’m not sure how much she will weigh, but we will see in 4-7wks.

Answer

I gained 10lbs with my first she was 7lb 8oz.

Answer

I've gained 10 lbs. They've been concerned, babe yes measuring small but not dangerously so. 35 weeks

Answer

Cant tell how big baby will be by your weight gain. I gained 15lbs total during my first pregnancy. My daughter was 7lbs 12oz. I lost all 15lbs in the act of giving birth (between baby, placenta, fluid and blood loss).
My sister gained 40lbs with both her pregnancies and her babies were around 7lbs. 🤷🏼‍♀️ You’ll just have to wait and see!
