Crazy belly measurements @ 36 wks.& How much did your 36 wkers. weigh?

So I am being induced Th. and thought I would see how big I measure...53(cm) wks. pregnant AND 53 in. around!!! Crazy... I've measured so much bigger all along and last weeks U/S showed they had finally slowed their growth a little. I wonder how much they will weigh in @ 36 wks. My U/S at 35 wks. showed est. 5lbs.14oz and 6lbs.4oz. I am thinking around 7lbs. a piece 4 wks. early....how much did your 36 wkers. weigh when born? They will still seem like small babies to me after having 2 9lb. singletons though:)

  • Thanks for posting, I am wondering the same thing...I was told they do not gain as much as a singleton in the end...my baby a is 6 lbs and baby b is 5 lbs 9 ozs...I am happy they are such good weights for 35 weeks (my siggy is wrong) but I am wondering how much more they will grow. I am nervous about them being small...my son was a 9lb baby and he seemed so small to me when he was born...lol...i am just glad we did not buy any premie clothes.It is looking like the newborn stuff might not fit very long...

  • We had a growth scan at 35w 5d and they measured 6lbs 13oz and 5lbs 13oz I believe. They were born a few days later at 36w 1d weighing 6lbs 7oz and 5lbs 2oz.
  • i was 54" around when i gave birth to the twins at 38w.. i don't remember my fundal measurment b/c it really doesn't mean much - and can change depending on how the babies are laying (i once went "down" a few weeks after being up - all b/c of baby placement)

    Griffin was born at 36w and was 7lb 4oz. 

  • My belly measured 4 feet around the night before my c-section.  I am 5'4" and weighed 100 lbs before babies.  My scheduled c-section was at 35 weeks and 6 days.  My girls weighed 5.3, 4.13 & 4.13.

  • my girls weighed 6.13 & 7.1 when they were born at 36 weeks, 2 days...the u/s measurements 2 weeks earlier had tehn weighing 7.13 & 7.14...GL!
  • My boys were born at 36w2d and were 4lbs 6oz and 5lbs 9oz.  I think I tend to have smaller babies, because my singleton was born at 37w6d and was 5 lbs 13oz.
