Growth U/S

atc282

I have my next growth u/s on Thurs. when I am 34 weeks. To date, my girls have been measured, weighed via ultrasound every 4 weeks.

Q: Will this be my last growth u/s until I deliver? My induction is at 38 weeks, which would be exactly 4 wks from Thurs. OR, do they start doing growth u/s at each weekly appt. from here on out??

Another Q:  Can you pls. share with me your 34 wk. weights for your babies?? On avg., how much do they grow per week? Last time my girls weight 3.3 each at 30 weeks.

Thanks so much for any feedback! I'm very grateful for responses!!

my last growth u/s was scheduled for 34 weeks, but i didn't make it that far. i had one at 30 weeks, then at 33 weeks, right before i had the boys. but that was after being in the hospital for a week.

i really shouldn't be answering this post, since i have no useful info for you. :P

congrats on 34 weeks, though! at 33w2d (birthday) mine were between 4/3 and 4/10.

Hi!

I had one at 33 weeks and my boys measured 4.5 lbs each.  In my case, we stuck with the every 4 week schedule so I have my last one scheduled for week 37.

The Dr told me they could gain an average of .5 lbs a week so I assume by 34 weeks they were probably around 5 lbs each

Good luck!!

I had my last u/s just after 34 weeks and the girls were measuring about 7 lbs. each...when they were born at 36 wks 2 days they weighed 6.14 & 7.1

Our last one is scheduled for next week at 33 weeks.  They expect both babies will be just under 4 1/2 pounds.  I am not scheduled to have another before I deliver.

Also at our 30 week they were 3lb3oz and 3lb.

I had an ultrasound last week at 33.5 weeks and the babies were 6 lbs 9 oz and 5 lbs 2 oz.  I have another ultrasound scheduled at 36.5 weeks.  No induction scheduled for me so far...
