growth scans, any advice or personal experiences?

[yasminejamilla]

Hey, I had a growth scan at 28 weeks and they think shes big! Im 33 weeks now and got another growth scan at 36 weeks, shes measuring 4 weeks bigger than she should they reckon, anyone else had this? If so what happened in the end?

Advice and personal experiences please:) xx

I'm 29 weeks with baby number 3 and she's measuring 4 weeks bigger just like her brother and sister did!
I just seem to grow them big is what the consultant said but I do get a few extra scans and number 2 and this one will be born by c section as I had trouble delivering number 1.

I'm having growth scans too, did they tell you the estimated weight? I'm also 33 weeks had 1at 28 weeks and one last Wednesday, x

My growth scan was seriously inaccurate! DC was almost a while lb lighter than predicted.

I've got the opposite problem I'm measuring small for dates so have a growth scan booked for Tuesday, when I'll be 29 weeks. Am trying not to worry too much as I'm fairly tall and go to the gym a lot so have strong stomach muscles. Also, the women in my family don't have big babies - my siblings and I were all under 7lb and my brother's daughters were under 6lb.

With DD I had a growth scan and they told me..ohh a lovely 7lb you have here. 9lb 13oz at birth

currently I am measuring a week behind, frankly I'm not worried after DD birth weight. However I do know this baby is very long. Growth scan next week so interested to see what they say this time....

Take it with a pinch of salt.

Hi, I just had a growth scan at 34 weeks as they said he was 2 weeks bigger, turns out he's only 5 pounds and quite small. I give up listening to advice from ppl.
