38 weeks today since about 30 weeks my belly has always measured a few weeks behind of my gestational age, at 29 weeks my son was 11oz and in the 50th percentile, i then had another ultrasound at 33 weeks and 3 days because my belly was measuring at 30 weeks and he was 4 pounds 8 ounces and in the 30th percentile, my appointment on the 13th of this month i was 36+6 and measuring at 34 weeks so they ordered an uktrasound that following friday where i found out my son was 6 pounds 8 ounces!! He gained exactly 2 pounds in a month and they said he was in the 39th percentile, im nlt sure what that means though they never explained it, 39th just seems so low to me!
quick question does that mean you might have the baby anytime sooner than expected
It just means he's measuring a little smaller than other babies that gestational age. Ultrasounds can be a couple pounds off so I've never paid much attention to the weight they gave me. My 3 year old was supposedly going to be almost 9 lbs and was barely over 6 lbs. He's still tiny for his age and is only 10th percentile for his height and weight, but he's healthy so the Dr's aren't concerned. I'm sure your little one is perfectly healthy.
thank you! (:
