I'm 29 weeks - two 3-LB babies on track?

Seems big to me at this stage...especially since I've read that in the third trimester, twins gain 1/2-LB per week...  I'm going to be a house by 38 weeks!

  • I am not sure if that is the "norm" or not, but if your calculation about the 1/2 pound per week is correct it would be on par with my twins.  I delivered them at 35 weeks due to pre-e and they were 6lb 9oz and 6lb 5oz.

     Personally I think it is great - nice, big healthy babies!  Congrats!!!

  • Mine seem like they'll be close to that by then. ?My last appointment, they were 2lbs. 3oz. and 2lbs. 5oz. at 26 weeks. ?My OB seemed pleased with those measurements!

  • That's what mine were measuring at 29 weeks - 3.2 and 3.3.  I hadn't heard they gain 1/2 lb per week. If so, that makes me happy because I can't wait until they are both over 5 lbs.

    At 32 weeks: 4lb7oz and 3lb14oz

  • Last U/S yesterday showed -27.5 days and mine were

    2 lbs. 7 oz & 2 lbs 4 oz.

     

    So there is on track. Don't stress its appropriate.
