I’ve had 2 kids previously and were always big. I’m 25 weeks pregnant now and measuring a week behind but I have a tummy tuck so my bump is a lot smaller

I had small babies for both my girls but doctor was concerned still with my second so I had to have an ultrasound at almost every appointment but she came out perfect just like my first 5lbs 13 ounces healthy as can be. Both my girls were the size of yours around the same time. It’ll work out 🙂

My first was 8lb 10oz and my second was 7lb.
No idea why such a difference but they are both perfectly healthy

Each baby is different! My grandma had 12 kids and each of them varied in weight and length, the smallest (8th kid) was 5lb 9oz and 17inches long while the biggest (3rd kid) was 11lb 2os and 22inches long! The specific genetic makeup each kid gets definitely influences size.
Also, when I went in for my induction at 41 weeks I was measuring 3 weeks behind and the ultrasound they did that night estimated about just under or right at 7 lbs and he was born 24 hours later 8lbs 9oz. Ultrasound weights can be vastly incorrect, it's not a perfect science by any means.

My son was 8 pounds and 21.5 inches
My daughter was 6 pounds and 19 inches her head measured 32 CM
My baby was in the 5% in my belly at 30 weeks and I was seen by a regular obgyn and a high risk obgyn twice in a week till I gave birth. I was diagnosed with IUGR and she was small for gestational age. We had a lot of issues, but now She’s doing great. Her birth was easier than my sons. I went unmedicated. Definitely felt lots of pain during transition 🤣😭
It’s gonna be okay mama 🤍

50th percentile is not the goal, it’s just average. There are babies bigger and smaller than average. 90 and 13 are both perfect!
