Re: How big was your 35 weeker?
My son was a 35weeker and weighed 6pounds and was 19 1/2 inches long. I was told he was big for being born that early though. He has always been in higher % for size and all so he is just BIG.
My daughter was pretty big for being born just under 35 weeks. She was 5 lbs 9 oz and 19 inches.
Twin boys born too early at 17w4d and 18w2d in February 2010
Transabdominal cerclage placed September 2010
DS born at 35w1d in February 2011
Twin girls born at exactly 36w in February 2013
DS was born at 34w and was 5lbs and 18inches. DS was in the hospital for 5 days.
My nephew was born at 35w2d and was 6lbs and 20in. He is now 3 and has always been tall for his age. He did not spend any time in the NICU.
My giant baby was 35w4d and 7 lb 1 oz :-)
He was very very big!
He was a little over a week in the intermediate nursery.
I was charting and an early u/s confirmed my date, so I know his gestational age is correct!
My son was born at 36 weeks 3 days at 6 lbs even, 19 in. long. We stayed in the NICU a week.
35w1d.
3 lbs 8 oz, 16 in (IUGR, 17 days NICU/Special Care)
5 lbs 0 oz, 17.75 in. (No NICU)
My lo was born at 36 weeks 2 days and was 5 lb 3 oz (IUGR). He didn't require any NICU time.
I had an ultrasound 2 days before his birth that estimated his weight to be 5.4 which they told me was the 12%.

Our LO was born at 35 weeks exactly. She was 6lb 6oz and 20 1/4" long...definitely on the bigger side. (she was always measuring big) She didn't have to spend any time in the NICU (but she did have jaundice and had to be admitted at 4 days old).
I was told all my boys were big for how early they were born. ds#1 34w 5lbs 3oz ds#2 34w 6lbs 8oz and ds#3 6lbs 11oz. We were told he was so big for a 35w he looked like most of the other babies in the ft nursery. He was also my only one not to go straight to the NICU
