How are people finding out babies estimated weight? Are you having extra scans? Ive not been told an estimated weight for mine.
I found it on my 2nds when i went for a growth scan but noone told me her weight or anything its only when i sat and read the print out after lol.
I know where my baby measures on the centiles but not an estimated weight. Am i missing something?
Im 38 weeks sunday

Yes finding out from growth scans, my babies weight was on the paper x

My first had growth scans said she would over 9lbs and "rip me open" were the words from the consultant. I said ill take my chances thanks
She was 7lbs 7oz and i had a graze no tearing, all natural spontaenous birth
No growth scans with 2nd and no tears or graze
3rd ive had an extra scan for placenta position which i also had in my 1st thats all, ive tracked high all pregnancy but not had a growth scan as midwife just hasnt felt it appropriate and im happy with that too lol x

You can work out a very rough estimate from your growth chart, but scans are more accurate but also are never 100% x
