3rd Tri. Measurements ?

Last month (4 weeks ago) my twins were measuring 5lbs 10oz and 5lbs13oz I was 31w 2d. 

 I have my last radiology u/s today (36w 2d). I am anxious to see how much they are measuring at but wonder how accurate they are.

What have your experiences been with late pregnancy measurements and their accuracy with what your twins were actually born at?

Technically the twins can come any day. They have been measuring big the whole way through. My daughter was 9lb 4 oz so I do have big babies,  but I know there is some room for error with the radiology u/s. I was just wondering how close your measurements were in late pregnancy compared to the twins actual birth weight. 

Thanks in advance!

Re: 3rd Tri. Measurements ?

  • At 36 weeks, my girls were estimated by ultrasound to weigh 5lbs 5oz and 5lbs 7oz.  They were born at 38 weeks weighing 6lbs 6oz and 5lbs 12oz.

  • My first was also 9lbs 4oz. At almost 36 weeks they estimated the twins at 7lbs 11oz each. At birth, 37w 5d, they weighed 7lbs 6oz and 7lbs 8oz.
  • Growth scan at 36 weeks showed 5lbs0 and 5lbs1.  They were born at 37w2d at 5lbs7 and 5lbs8, so it was pretty much right on.
