GD Ladies who had 35 week Growth Sano

What were the measurements you were given?

I had mine today ... from worrying about PTL I've gone to worry about how big will this baby be and will I be able to push him out. They said he is already 6 #, I have 5 more weeks to go and my ob said she'll let me go past 40 weeks Indifferent

    Mine measured in the 74th %ile (6lb 10oz) at my 35w3d appt.  They're predicting that, at my induction at 39 weeks, she will weigh about 8 lb. Hope that helps - my doc doesn't let people who have GD go past 39 weeks, so I'm not sure about that.

    I had a 34 week growth u/s.  Baby is in the 75th percentile (down from 93rd percentile at my 30 week!).  Appx weight is 5lb 10oz. 

    I can't believe that your OB will allow you to go past your due date.  I'm hoping to get to 40 weeks, but if baby reaches a certain *estimated* size, they'll induce at 39 weeks.

    I had one today (almost 37 weeks) and baby was 7 lbs. Dr. said that was like the 65th percentile and to expect an 8 to 8.5 lb baby. So your measurements don't sound that bad to me.

    i had mine at 33weeks 5 days and he was almost 5 lbs (around 4, 15oz) if i'm remembering right and was in the 66th percentile. 

     they told me he'd probably gain another 3lbs between now and delivery - now as far as how long ob will let me go, i'm asking about that tomorrow.

    I had mine at 33w6d and he was estimated at 5 1/2 pounds. His head and abdomen measured 34 weeks but his femurs measured 36 (DH is 6'5). If he stays breech, I'm scheduled for a c-section on September 4 (39 weeks). My OB said he likes to deliver GD babies around 38-39 weeks.

    I haven't quite hit 35 weeks, but at my 31 week 6 day sono the baby was weighing in at 4 lbs 12 oz.  Sounds like he is going to be a big one.  My dr plans on doing an induction at 36 weeks though, since I have preeclampsia.

    at 34 week, he was in 80th percentile - - and at 37 week ultrasound they said 7 lbs, 8 oz. However, he was born at 39 weeks and weighed in at 8 lbs even - - so know that the u/s can be off!

    At 36 weeks my ultrasound tech measured our boy at 7lbs 14ozs. At 38 weeks he measured 8lbs 13ozs!

    I think my eyebrows got lost in my hairline Indifferent

    I had growth u/s done for the past two months.

    At 35 weeks, Max was 7lbs 8oz.

    Today, at 38 weeks 4 days, he was 9lbs 4 oz, and in the 97th percentile.

    Needless to say, I have demanded to see my OB on Monday to discuss getting him out.

    The other OB that I saw wanted me to wait another two weeks. I don't think so.
