Mines was 5lb 9 at 35 weeks exactly which was 66th percentile

5lb 9 too 35 weeks from growth scan

Mine was approx 6lbs 7 going by growth scan at 34 weeks, following 97th percentile.

@Amanda have they said anything about this being a concern?

@Emma jo yeah, they are concerned about her size. Her tummy measurement was on the 100th. I've got a final scan in a week (37 weeks) to determine if I'll need a C-section. My previous baby was big too and shoulder dystocia delivery which was really bad, and I'm tiny so it's a problem 😫

@Amanda Aww, fingers crossed all will be okay. My babies leg measurements were over the 100, which is what has shot her estimated weight up! I'm really hoping for a natural birth as im allergic to alot of anesthetics!

My youngest who’s now three at 35 weeks was measuring 8lb 8oz. He was born three weeks after the scan and weighed 7lb 11oz.

I had a growth scan on Thursday at 34 weeks, they reckon she’s about 6lb already so on the 90th centile. I had a growth scan at 38 weeks with my first and they said she was about 8lb8oz, she was born 8 days later and only 8lb2oz so trying not to get too het up on it.

6lb 5

at 33 weeks mine was 5lb 10, 35 weeks now next scan is at 37 weeks

36 weeks 5lbs and 9oz 20th percentile but told this is nothing to worry about

At 33 weeks mine was estimated 5lb 1 oz

I had growth scan yesterday 34+1 and he’s 5lb5oz

Had a growth scan at 34 & 4 and she was 6lb 2

I’ve had a scan today at 34+3 and was estimated at 4lb 14oz which is about 20th centile I think (difficult to tell as between lines). Ironically was referred because my bump measurement was off the top end of the chart 🙄

Growth scan at 35*5 baby on 94th percentile- 6.12- got another scan on 16th May to decide what to do ! Was tested for GD- negative so waiting on scan xxx

My growth scans have been so strange. Two weeks ago he was 72nd centile. Monday he was 93 centile and they made me retest for GD. Every single one of my friends had ‘99 centile’ babies - dr’s told them they needed to be induced, needed to come out earlier etc. Each baby was no heavier than 7lbs. Take the growth scan with a pinch of salt - my best friend used to be a midwife and she said it’s total BS!

A teeny 4lb 4

@Marni I second this. In my last pregnancy I didn’t have a growth scan but according to my bump measurements I was 97th centile. My boy was born on the 50th centile a very average 7lb 8, and that was after arriving 6 days past due date x

Mine at 34 weeks was measuring 4lb 15oz The scan can not be accurate my oldest they told me he was really small and was going to be 5lb 5oz or something and he was 7lb 10oz 5 days later. They also said with my youngest she was going to be 8lbs and she was born week later at 6lb 8oz x

I'm 35 weeks baby weighing 6.11

Hey girl, in my first pregnancy I had to have growth scans and around 35 weeks my son was 5Ib 4 oz. Gave birth @ 40 weeks and he was 1oz off of an 8 pounder🥰

My last growth scan was at 34 weeks and she was estimated 5 pounds 2 which they said was 83rd percentile but that doesn’t seem right compared to some other peoples that are heavier but lower percentile? Does the percentile take our own body size into account? Because I’m quite small myself so maybe that’s why? I’m 36 weeks tomorrow and next scan at 38 weeks so will find out in a couple weeks how big she’s got now haha

I was 35+6 at my most recent growth scan last week and he’s weighing 6lb 10.

@Chantelle yeah I was told at my fjrst growth scan that your growth chart is personalised based on your height and weight, so your 90th percentile may be slightly different than someone else's

@Isabelle ahh ok that makes sense then! (Also makes me feel much better about her size because I was thinking 83 is still a big number and I’m not a big person 😥😭) 😂😂
