baby weight at 36 weeks

jessabella · Oct 16th, 2010, 12:42 PM

Do you know how much your baby weighs or weighed at 36 weeks. I have been told that doctor is thinking of inducing me at 36 weeks and I know that they will hold you in hospital until baby is over 5lbs..so I didnt now if at 36 weeks baby would be 5lbs by then or not

I dont want ot stay in hospital..especially since this will be right before Christmas for me...
If it helps I had my last measurement that measured me at 31 weeks although Im only 28 weeks..but havent had a growth scan as of yet so dont know how much she weighs now!

I had a growth scan yesterday and my little man was 4lb4oz at 32wks so your LO should be over 5lb by then.

I had a growth scan a couple of days ago at 35 +5 and weight was estimated at 6Ib's which was pretty average on the scale.

i have my 36 weeks scan on tue but at 32 weeks my lo weighed 4lbs 2ounces which they said was normall,

think around 36 weeks the lo should weigh between 5-6lbs depending.

At 35+4 baby was around 6lbs 8oz

I had a growth scan at 34 weeks and he measured 5lbs 13oz which is just a bit bigger then average

i had a scan at 36+5 and he was around 5lb 10 whichc is slightly small i assume but i have been monitored most of the pregnancy anyway for small baby so i would imagine so long as your baby has been growing fine then he/she will be above 5 lb x
