3rd Trimester

Lurker here... so I got my growth U/S results and

as of today they say my baby is a normal weight at about 8 pounds or more. Um yeah except I have 2 weeks left. I'm being induced a week prior to my due date because my last baby was a 10 pounder! So now I am terrified this one will be mighty big too. Sigh... Anyway, hoping the U/S is measuring wrong and baby will be smaller. Boo....

  • Ouch!  I am sorry.  My mom had me and I was almost 9pds.  My brother was born after me and he was almost 11pds.  They say each baby you have weighs a little more than the one before.  Good Luck!

  • I hope the u/s is measuring wrong. My friend at 36 weeks was told her baby was already 7 1/2 lbs, 4 weeks later (last week when he arrived), he was only 7 lbs 11 oz.
  • Growth u/s are notoriously inaccurate and for some reason doctors still panic from them. Mine was at 38 weeks and Jack measured 7lbs9oz. At 41 weeks he was born at 6lbs3oz.

     

  • Good luck!  I'm scheduled for a c/s today because my OB is very concerned about my u/s weight estimate putting my baby at 9lbs 13oz.  I understand your concern, hopefully your baby is smaller and you have a breeze of a delivery.
