Baby's weight at 37 1/2 Weeks??
posted 19th Jun '12
During pregnancy what was your baby weighing @ around 37 1/2 wks? I just went & i'm 3cm dilated & she is weighing 6lbs 10ozs. And if you have had your baby already what was the weight @ 37 1/2 Weeks on the ultrasound & birth.

My daughter was born right at 37 weeks and was 8lbs 11oz.
But...I have little monsters.

AT 37 weeks they told me Avagail was 8lbs. At 38 they told me was 9lbs. The day before I had her they told me she was going to be over 10lbs. I had a c-section the next day and she was 8lbs 7oz.

At 38 weeks, the weight was estimated to be 7 lbs exactly. My son was born about 36 hours later and was 7lbs, 7 oz.

Oh, I should have included this, my daughter was born (induced, health concerns) at 38 weeks exactly and was 6lbs, 15oz (I think, for some reason I'm doubting it a bit, she might have been an ounce or two lighter).

well i had an ultrasound at 35 weeks and she weighted 6 lbs 4 oz and was born at 39 weeks and 3 days at only 7 lbs 5 oz so I do believe they were off a good pound.

Thanks for all the replies! I'm thinking she will be a good 6-7lbs then

I personally would take the weights taken from the ultrasound with a grain of salt. They can give you a guestimate but thats it a pure pot luck - they can be wayyyyy off with what they think. Both my children were prem and their final birth weights when born at 34 weeks were 6 pounds 9 (boy) and 5 pounds 10 (girl). A few days before my daughters birth they were summising her weight to be 4 pounds.
