As title says. The midwife worked out last week at 28 weeks that my baby weighed around 2.2 pounds.On the growth chart she was on the lower line but had gone up the required amount since my last scan.So the midwife thought all ok.I just wondered what everyone elses babies were.
 
My little boy weighed approx 2lb 5oz at my 28 weeks growth scan, on the lower percentile too.
 
mine was 1.5 lbs at 28 weeks he has a 2 vessle cord at 30 weeks he was 3lbs 12 oz i have another one in a few days
 
My lil boy was 3lbs at 28 weeks, my consultant said that this weight was only slightly big for dates.
 
If the baby is under around 2 pounds then at 28 weeks do they suggest a growth scan?I have booked a private growth scan at 30 weeks just to check all is well
 
I'm only having the growth scans because I have gestational diabetes so they keep an eye on the growth to make sure he isn't getting too big.
 
I'm a type 1 diabetic hence my growth scans x
 
Mine was 2.7, which they said was fine. On the lower but average size. That was done on scan though so I presume it's fairly accurate. I have a long baby though apparently x
 
I didn't get a weight at 28 weeks but had growth scan at 32 weeks and weight was 3lbs 9 ozs which is apparently smaller than they would ideally like. I have another growth scan on Thursday this week (34 weeks) so hopefully she will have caught up although my EDD was estimated small (they told me 3-4lbs when I waas in labour at 40+1), her birthweight was 6lbs 15ozs which is very healthy so I'm not panicking about it.
 
Alex was born at 2lb 14oz - which was considered on the heavier side for that gestation (27+4)
 
Well according to babycentre the average weight at 28 wks is 2.22 pounds which is 2 lbs and 3.5 oz

I have never been given any estimate weights in either of my pregnancies, not even at a growth scan at 36wks - I was simply told baby was measuring perfectly.

I am having my 28 week growth scan tomorrow so I will post baby's weight then. Just wanted to see what everybody else's was. Good luck all!
 
Thanks Ellie that looks like im ok then thats a relief. I think i worry too much
 
My twins were both 2.5lbs at 28 weeks and I was told that was perfect.

Good luck

I was told approx 2lbs 10ounces at 28wks... they said it was perfect for where I was at.
