Hi,
Had an scan yesterday and they worked out the weight of the baby from the scan using the graph in my green booklet, I am 29+4 weeks, and supposedly baby is at the top of the range weighing somewhere over 3 pound, I just wanted to know how accurate this is or is it a rough guide which could be completely wrong?

Usually about 1kg of leeway each way I think.

A very rough guide. I had 3 growth scans and DS was big at each one and predicted to be over 9lbs at birth. He was born at 40+4 at a very normal 8lbs 1.
