Had a scan today. Both are 5.6 and 5.7lbs at 32w4d Dr said he'd rather see them bigger than small. I'm a little nervous how big they are going to get lol
I'm 30+6 today and we had a growth scan because of the gestational diabetes. Sprout is weighing in at 4 pounds 6 ounces. 76th percentile. Doc is super happy about where we are at. Not too small (she was concerned because I haven't gained a lot) or too big (concerned because of the GD). We are doing good! Just have a chunky monkey as she called him or her.
ETA: Our ultrasound picture was of baby's hair! We have a little bit of hair on baby's head! That was cool to see.
Just had a scan, 33 weeks 2 days & baby girl is 5 lbs 3 oz (although I was told to give or take 12 oz). 71st percentile...dr predicts that if I go to 40 weeks she will be somewhere between a high 7 lbs & low 8. Oh, & her long little legs measured 2 1/2-3 weeks ahead. Guess that's what you get with a daddy whose 6'1/6'2" lol :P
@NLJ82 I don't know if someone already answered (possibly on another thread) but percentile is when they look at a group of babies, children, etc of the same age and look at the average. So with us, baby is 71 percentile. If there was a group of 100 babies...she would be bigger then 70% of that group. Hope that helps!!
At 33w4d, LO was weighing in at 4 lbs 2 oz. She dropped to the 19th percentile. She gets 3 more weeks to gain some weight. Hopefully, she gains enough to stay inside or I could be induced on October 14th.
I have GD, so I have been getting a growth scan every week now. At 34w4d, baby is measuring 6 lbs and 15 oz. She's gonna be big, but she is one healthy little girl. She has been scoring great on her biophysical profile, and she has been practicing her breathing during every scan.

We had another growth scan yesterday (33w6d) and baby is estimated to weigh 4 lb 8 oz. she was measuring in the 19th%ile. Yay-I'm excited at anything over 10th%ile (no iugr concern). The most exciting thing is that at 34 weeks we are STILL pregnant!!! Anything past 27w2d has been uncharted waters!
