I’m getting super discouraged today I had a stress test and a froth ultrasound then a dr came in to talk to me saying she’s 9lbs and continued to ask me if I was diabetic 😤 I’m not and was tested for it I passed with flying colors 🌈 so if other moms have gone throw this I’m loosing hope and ending up feeling like I’m going to be pregnant forever 😭😭
My second baby was born at 38 weeks and was 9lbs 9oz. The ultrasound I had the night before he was born measured him to be 6lbs 8oz. So start with, those end of pregnancy ultrasounds are not very accurate at all. When he was born they called him a “big for gestational age” baby, and he had his blood sugar levels tested after every feed for 4 feeds. They all came back normal. He was perfectly healthy, just big. 🤷🏻♀️ I did not have gestational diabetes and had only gained 35lbs during my pregnancy with him.
They said the same for me. Made me do the GD rest twice even though I passed them both. They said he was going to be over 10 lbs. he was 6 lbs and 14 oz. those ultrasounds are said to be about 80% accurate with the weight factor. Don’t stress urself girlie
