I don't understand how a doctor can estimate weight without doing an ultrasound? I just can't see it being accurate... Did anyone else's Dr do this with them?
I'm 36 weeks and she said my baby is already 7 pounds so they will schedule an ultrasound at next appointment. I know ultrasounds are exactly accurate either but I can't really believe my baby would be 7 pounds already with 25 more days to go..
I feel like my midwife was more accurate than the ultrasound. The growth scan said 6lbs, my midwife said 7.5-8.5lbs I said she felt more around 8lbs and my daughter was born at 8.4lbs
Either way it's just an estimate from doctor or ultrasound can't really know until baby is born
My doctor estimated w/o an ultrasound a week before..He said my son would be 8 lbs 3 oz at birth..He was 6 lbs 12 oz lol
