How big is your baby?

miraclemarie

So does everyone know how big their LO is yet? I went to the specialist the other day and they told me she weighs 4 pounds 8 ounces and is in the 46% tile range. I did however get upset because when people at work asked me if I knew how big she was yet and I told them - they said enjoy having an 8 and a half pound + baby. Is her weight bad for 33 weeks?

Last Wednesday my LO was estimated to be 5lbs 1 oz. The doctor reminded me this is just an estimate and not to get too worried about his size based on US predictions.

Last week they estimated 4lb 15oz at the ultrasound.

I had an ultrasound yesterday and baby weighed in at 6lbs 10oz.  He's in the 75th percentile.  DH and I aren't worried as our first child was born at 10lbs 2 oz.  We make big babies lol!

On Monday (34w4d) they estimated her to be 5 lbs 3 oz, which is pretty average.

At my 29wk U/S they estimated him to be 3lb9oz. So now I am pretty sure he is weighing a good 5lbs. They are just estimates that can easily be off by 1 to 2lb either way.

At 33 weeks, 4 lbs 4 oz.  She's 40th percentile.

Why would having a good sized baby be upsetting?

I don't know how big my little one is now at 32 weeks but the growth ultrasound I had at 27 weeks estimated her at 3lbs.

At 33 weeks on the dot my little girl was weighing in at a estimated 5 pounds, I wouldn't worry too much about it, I think that put her in the 63% which is fine with me since 50% is measuring perfectly with their EDD and we have been measuring at lea

At my last ultrasound on Monday, baby was estimated to be 4lb 11oz. He or she is on the small side. My MFM said this one will more than likely be smaller than my DD, who was alb 1 oz at birth (39w4d).

At 30w they were about 3.4 pounds

Mine was estimated 4 lbs and 13 oz at 32 weeks.  I was very happy that she is growing and is hopefully going to be a good size.  I don't think there's anything wrong with an 8 and a half lb baby.  </spa

First of all, no your baby's weight is practically spot on with the avg baby or 50%.  Second, DD was born 8 lbs 6 oz and it was relatively easy...as easy as giving birth is.  If they aren't OBs, I wouldn't worry about what ot

At an ultrasound I had at 32 weeks he was 5 1/2 lbs and in the 98 percentile for length...I get comments about "I hope the doc takes him out soon, you don't want a big baby"...I said I want a full term healthy baby boy. I don't care what his weight is or

U/S at 28w1d DD was 2.8 & DS was 3.3

She was estimated at 4 lbs. 3 oz. this morning.

At my 30 week u/s, the baby was 3lb. 4 oz., which put him in the average range.  My other two were huge (8.6 and 9.3) so I wouldn't be surprised if this one is, too.

My baby was 4 lbs 7 oz at 32w1d.  I was told that was in the 64th percentile.  I think your baby is right on track!

Maybe this is a silly question, but are those of you getting ultrasounds at this point having them because you're high risk, or because there is a concern about growth at your appointments?  The only reason I ask is because I only had one ultras

Her weight seems to be bang on. The ultra sound tech told me that she has been out before up to 1.5 pounds, she told me that the machine isn't perfectly accurate all the time. At 30 weeks when I had an ultra sound my baby was 4.1lbs already, the tech s

At 32 weeks baby was 3lbs 14oz which was 23%. DD was measuring about the same at that point and was a smaller baby at 6lbs 7oz when she was born at 41 weeks.

DD was measured at 3lb 12oz on tuesday at 30w6d.  I wouldn't worry about it.   My sister had her daughter at 32 weeks and my niece weighed 2lb 14oz.....

mrsthomas3311

At 31 weeks I was told he was about 4 pounds, so that was 4 weeks ago I won't have another u/s  but Dr. she said he was on track to be a 7 lb'er so I guess we'll see.

I have no idea how much LO weighs 

pelicanwaters

Ignore them (and under 9 lbs isn't that bad, those wimps, lol).   The doctors told me my first would be no bigger than 7 1/2 lbs the week before he was born and he was born 8 lb 3 oz.  My daughter was born 6lb 3 oz at 34 weeks so I'd say your

My DS1 was born at 33w5d and weighed 5lbs 2.5oz and was over 18 inches long. I thought that was pretty good for a preemie!
