How much did your baby weigh at your big U/S?

ncavitt · September 2009

and how far along were you?

I was 19 weeks, 2 days. The baby weighed 11 oz. I was measuring 19 weeks, 4 days according to the ultrasound so right on track basically. Also, they said our baby was in the 40-60% for this time frame. According to What to Expect when you are Expecting and Babycenter.com, at 19 weeks the baby should be 8 oz. So, I'm confused.....how was I right on track according to the dr. and in the average range percentile but a little ahead weight-wise according to these other resources.

Just curious, what was your baby and how far along were you? Thanks!

I was 19 weeks 1 day, and measured at 19 weeks 5 days, and the baby weighed 11 oz, too! Really 8 oz is probably an average, and 11 oz that far off.

At 19 weeks 4 days she weighed 9 oz

8 oz at 19w

lol mine was 15oz at and I was measuring 21w1d

But I'm pretty sure later on in u/s they say they can be up to 2 lbs off. But that is toward the end , I'm not sure what the range is around 20 weeks.

No didn't seem that far off, but 11 oz wasn't until 21 weeks in the book I think. It appears that everyone on here was around the same so far, so seems pretty normal to me!

Exactly 1lb, but I was 22 weeks.

12 oz at 19 weeks, 6 days.

I'm so glad you asked this question! Our baby weighed 10 oz at 19 weeks. I keep reading about how baby is about 9 oz now - 2.5 weeks later - and I have been a bit panicked and mentally preparing myself for a massively huge baby at birth. I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one with a bigger than "average" baby at this point.

I was 19weeks and 3 days and he was 10 oz The dr told me that was in the fifty percentile

mrs_sherod · September 2009

20 weeks...he weighed 14 oz

MrsChowBella · September 2009

I believe ours weighed in just under 12 oz. I didn't know if this was big or small but now it sounds kinda big!

JustJanie · September 2009

My LO was 11 oz at 19w1d... so we're near where you are...

Vuja_de · September 2009

19w 6d = 12oz

BabyS. · September 2009

Hmm, they didn't mention weight - anyone else not get that info?

LadyJavy · September 2009

I had my u/s at 20 weeks exactly. She measured 20 weeks exactly and was 12oz... so you sound right on track!

Purplecalf · September 2009

Ultrasound was done @ 20w1day

Baby was measuring 13 oz.

karenandjeff · September 2009

Our baby was measuring at 12 ounces by 20 and a half weeks.

Very interesting-thanks everyone!!! This makes me feel a lot more normal. I guess that's why the dr's always say don't read that stuff or look online! Haha! Sounds like we are all right on track to have healthy happy babies!

My little one was 15oz. at 21weeks and 4 days

Lola'sDogMom · September 2009

Mine was 14 oz at 20 weeks- my books say it should have been 9 oz that week. I'm hoping the u/s was just off. DH and I are both small and were small babies so I can't imagine my child will be large.

kciriello · September 2009

18 weeks, and he was 8 ounces

Michele57O · September 2009

I didn't get to have my big U/S till I was 24 weeks. L/O was 1lb 4oz which they said was right in the middle of what is normal for how far along I was.
