Give me your opinion

I had another ultrasound today and am 34 weeks tomorrow. Baby A was 4.02 and baby B 4.00. Their last ultrasound was 3 weeks ago and their estimated weights were 3.14 and 3.05. I guess I was expecting more of a jump. They were still only measuring at 31 weeks today too. I'm not sure if I should be worried. I see the doctor Wednesday.

  • As they get more crammed in there growth scans become more unreliable. If the doc isn't concerned I wouldn't be either

    this.

    also, later on it's not as big of a deal what "week" they measure bc then they start to take on the small/big type of characteristics that you and DH have... are either of you petite? anyone in the family?  They might just be smaller babies/people.

    in the early weeks is when all babies are about the same size- but later on, as with at birth, there is huge variations in weight that are all normal.... just as adults are all different sizes.

  • Ditto Goldie.
    FWIW my Baby A was est. at 5lbs12oz at 35w ... and at 37w he was estimated at 5lbs11oz. Made me a little nervous! (Baby B supposedly went from 5.7 to 5.11 during those two weeks). But at birth (37w6d) they were both right around 6 1/2 lbs so the estimates were a little off.

  • Thanks for the replies! I feel a lot better. I was expecting a lot bigger jump in size. I'll be glad to talk it over with the doctor more Wednesday!
