3lb 8 at 29 weeks, if you were the same. What was the birth weight?

I had a growth scan today as my bump is huge and FH is 3 weeks ahead.

Baby is 3lb 8 and on course for being over 10lb+ at 40 weeks.

I’m just curious if anyone else had similar and had an average size baby. This is no 4 but I’ve never gone over 8lb and am slightly terrified 😩

DN had similar measurements (projected to be 11 pounds and so was induced a week early) and weighed 8 pounds. He’s 5 now and is the smallest child in his class.

Another DN was born nearly 3 months early and was projected to weigh a pound. He weighed 4 pounds and was around 35 cm long and was the only baby in the premie ward with a normal incubator. He looked huge compared to the other premies but of course was still really small.

I hope my measurements are way too big and this one is a nice 8lb again 🤞🏻
