Mamas at 37 weeks I urge you to hang in there until week 39 at least. When I was 37 weeks I wanted him out myself but I'm glad he didn't come until yesterday (week 39) because according to my ultrasound he should have been about 8 lbs already. He was born 6 lbs 4 oz....he is a little thing but very healthy but that means my ultrasound was off and he would have been way smaller and may have faced complications with his weight had I had him at week 37.
It's not always the case though. :) Just a word of caution. Hang in there girls it'll be over soon. :)
My water broke at 37 weeks my son weighed 7 pounds 6 oz he is theee months now perfectly healthy.. doctors told me he might have been 9 pounds if he waited 38-39 weeks.
my daughter came at 37 weeks by c section and was 7 pounds 10.4 ounces. they did ultrasound before c section and said she was over 8 pounds so i agree they are not always accurate. She is now almost 7 months old and a tiny little thing. I hate when I see people trying to have their babies starting at like 35 weeks.
I heard a good rule of thumb is to deduct one pound at least from what the ultrasound says because they usually are wrong
