38 week growth ultrasound - Large baby
Just looking for any experiences with this. I’m 38+3 with my second baby. He’s been measuring >99th% pretty much my whole pregnancy. We had a scan at 34 weeks and he was estimated 7lb14oz, and another scan at 38 weeks estimating him 9lb12oz. At this time, they are not recommending induction or c section, but for me to labor naturally. I can’t electively induce because of an IV fluid shortage. I’m honestly terrified. My first baby was only 7lb 2oz. I’m so scared he will get too big and get stuck and something bad happen.
I really just want know what to do at this point and I have so much anxiety about this. Does anyone have any experiences with birthing a large baby? Or ultrasound measurements like this? I appreciate your time reading this far.
