36 week growth scan

[brittany12]

what were your estimates vs actual baby’s weight at birth?

DD - 36w2d - 5 pounds 12 oz - born 39w2d @ 6.13

DS - 35w3d - 5 pounds 12 oz - born 39w3d @ 6.13

Baby #3 - 36w2d - estimated 6 pounds 14 oz - anxious to see what birth weight will be! Really wish it would be 6.13 like my other 2 because that would be so cool but that looks to be gone out the window lol!

No growth scan for first or third pregnancy.
Second I had a few growth scans. Last scan they estimated him at 10 lbs 3 oz. He was born 10 lbs 5 oz. This was over four years ago.

I don't 100% remember the weight he was predicted at my 33 weeks growth scan, but I remember they predicted something like the 16th percentile.

He was born at 37+2 at the 1st percentile! (5.13lbs)

I also cant remember exact weights but I had a growth scan on my first because she was measuring small (funal height and scans) she was born at 40+3 and weighed just 7lb but I do recall they thought she was going to be smaller she was 30th centile for weight

I cant really remember on my second there was so much going on with him from 30 weeks, but I remember them thinking he was going to be much bigger, he was born 40 weeks at 8lb 4oz so not big at all he was 65th centile for weight

This baby was scanned 5lb at 30 weeks, hes also predicted 75th centile for weight. So I think he'll be around what my second was if not slightly bigger, possibly top end of the 8lb mark or just below 9lb

It looks like I have tiny girls and chunky boys lol!

DS1 estimated 7lbs 5oz but was 8lb 15oz
DD estimated 7lbs 5oz bu was 5lb 7oz

This baby was 6lb 13oz at 34+2 weeks growth scan.
Being induced at 37+1 so shud be (going by growth scan) around 8 and a half lbs.
Let's see if it's right this time lol.

Growth scans are not accurate hon at all I've been told by so many other mums and midwife and doctors it's just a guess. They can be 20% out either way.

I’m not necessarily worried about it being right or wrong just curious

 

[Demotivated]

DS estimated 4lbs 14oz
Was born 2 weeks later at 6lbs

Baby #2 is also expected to b tiny. Was same 4lbs 14oz at 35 weeks. Let's see what is his weight is at 38weeks when he comes

My DD1 at scans and fundal was told 9lb+ born at 38 weeks 6lb 6oz

DS1 bang on with measurements born at 39 weeks 7lb 12oz

DD2 I was due to have a growth scan this week at 28 weeks but they messed up dates!!! Xx

Scanned at 38 weeks and was estimated over 11lb (off the chart for 40 weeks so no term prediction as growth spurt rapid from 32 weeks on 50th percentile to 99th at 36 weeks)

Lowri Haf born at 39+6 and was 10lb 8oz
