They told me in the ultrasound that my baby was measuring “skinny”. They want to do another ultrasound later to check his growth. He’s barley 3 pounds. And I’m going on 33 weeks. Is that normal ?

They called me back and want a weekly ultrasound. They didn’t say small. They said skinny. Idk what that means

@momofeach mine was measuring length ok, just small belly. Maybe your the same? We had weekly non stress tests and ultrasounds to monitor.

@christinephillips84, yes! They said he’s too skinny. Length is on track. Small belly though. An weekly ultrasounds now. I hope to get better news next Thursday

Babies gain the most weight at that last month. That's why it's so important to go to 40 weeks...

Plus other reasons like brain growth.

My daughter's were 4 lbs at 36 weeks and they came out at a decent weight

And ultrasound weights are really just guesses
