3rd Trimester

Did any have an u/s at 34 weeks?

I have another u/s on Monday and I was just wondering if anyone else had one around this time and if so how much did baby weigh?

DH was 10+ lbs and I was barely 7, just wanting to compare how big DD is compared to others.

Thanks!

Re: Did any have an u/s at 34 weeks?

  • I had an ultrasound at around that point and the baby was 5.25 pounds. The dr estimated his weight yesterday at about high 7's low 8's by feeling. DH and I were both 8 pound babies.

  • We had an U/S at 37 weeks to check size.  Same situation, DH was over 10, I was just under 7.  I have been measuring 3 weeks ahead since 24weeks.  Turns out our little guy was measured at 6lbs 11oz at that U/S.  Go figure!!  I was super happy because who wants to push out a 10 pounder!!  Now if only he would just stop this stubbornness and get here already  :)
  • just had one yesterday and they estimated 4.7lbs but didn't say what they thought it would be at EDD...

  • With my first baby I had lots of ultrasounds due to low fluid level.  The last one they said he was going to be around 7 pounds, he was 8 lbs. 9 oz.  The measurements are totally unreliable.
  • I had an U/S at 32 weeks and they said he's 6-6 1/2 pounds. I was 5.5 lbs. and DH was 6.5 lbs. Our little guy is quite large for this stage (I don't have GD). I have another U/S for 37 weeks.

    I think at 34 weeks the average should be 4 1/2 - 5 pounds. 

  • I had one yesterday and they estimated baby at 5 lb 9 oz. They said she's right on track and didn't order another one (this one was to check her size b/c at 30 weeks she was measuring big).

  • i had one at 34 weeks, but she never mentioned the weight. she was checking to see if baby was head down. the u/s i had at 28wks they told me she was measuring 3 pounds then. i am either in big trouble when this baby comes or they were off. i have never heard of a 28wk baby weighing 3 pounds, and my due date can not be off since i know exactly when this baby was conceived.

  • Had one today. Baby is measuring 35w5d and is estimated at 5 lbs 12 oz.

  • I had one at 34 weeks because I was measuring big and they wanted to do a growth check.  He was weighing in at 7lbs 4 oz and his head and body was measuring at 38 weeks but the femur was measuring at 34 weeks.  The are doing another ultrasound at 38 weeks to see how big he is and we will discuss our options then.  I had an appointment today and my doctor was surprised I wasn't measuring bigger so maybe our little guy just had a growth spurt a couple of weeks ago.  We will see.  I was over 7lbs when I was born and was two weeks early, my sister was over 8 lbs and she was three weeks early, I haven't found out about my dh yet though.

  • So DH was 10 lbs 2 oz and I was 7lbs 7oz. Our midwife did a check at my 38 week appt yesterday....Survey says.....8.5 pounds! I was not a happy camper after hearing that Indifferent

    But at least she's healthy and happy! I guess I can't complain too much.

  • I had an ultrasound at 34wks and the baby was measuring 6lbs 15oz!!! Big baby!  My dr has me going for another one at 37 wks on the 16th.  I may have to get a Csection. My husband was 10lbs and I was 7 11oz   so I'm thinking possible 9!!  Thank God all is healthy but a bit scared of the C!
