How much weight does a baby put on in the last 4 weeks of pregnancy?

At 28 weeks baby was measuring small at around the 10th centile during an ultrasound. The doctors were really worried and put me on some aspirin to help the placenta and they needed to keep an eye on him. Since then he's been gaining weight rapidly!

At 28 weeks he was measuring at 2lbs and 8oz.
At 31 weeks he was measuring at 4lbs and 2oz.
At 35 weeks he's measuring at 7lbs and 5oz.

What will another 4 weeks do to him?!?

He now way over the 90th centile line and wondering what his birth weight might be.

I personally wouldn't listen to what they tell you, they said my son was nearly 7lbs 2 weeks before birth but he was only 6.2lbs they can't be 100% sure what your baby will weigh, everyone I spoke to told me not to listen to as they was wrong with their baby aswell, I wouldn't worry about it

About 0.5 lb per week towards the end of pregnancy
