Babies weight the same as U/S?

TWINS2010 · February 2010

Hello, I just had my last U/S at 37 weeks and the boys are 6 1/2 lbs baby A and almost 7 lbs baby B. They always tell you that the ultrasound might be a pound more or a pound less. I'm curious to see if your babies' weights were close to what U/S said...I have a 3 year old boy and when I did my last ultrasound which was the day I delivered him, he weighed the same thing as what the U/S said.

My 35 week u/s showed Baby A at 7 lbs 2 oz and Baby B at 7 lbs 10 oz.

At 36w2d, Baby A was born at 5 lbs 14 oz and Baby B at 6 lbs 3 oz. They were definitely off a bit.

Mine were EXACTLY what the doctor said to the ounce.

My u/s at 37w estimated them both at 5 lbs 11 oz. They were born at 37w6d and weighed 6 lbs 10 oz and 6 lbs 7 oz.

I asked my doctor about this today and she said the margin of error was typically around 15%...

the entire pregnancy they thought my girl was bigger than my boy. Two days before I delivered I had my last u/s and they said that the boy was 6.13 and she was 6.11. He came out 6.7 and she came out 5.10. So hers was really off and his was about 1/2 lb off.
