Foetal Weight 20 weeks

[CareBear17]

Does anyone know estimated foetal weight at 20 weeks?

My scan at 20 & 3 yesterday baby’s estimated weight was 382.51g and I’m panicking that they’ll be huge.

After a tiny bit of googling it seems a bit higher, but these are all estimations based on other measurements so take with a pinch of salt! Some babies will weigh more, some less.

It’s an estimate.. don’t drive yourself crazy.

some babies are long and skinny, others are short and chunky. There’s no guarantee. 20 weeks is still quite early on so don’t give yourself another thing to worry about! :)

Does it mention the percentile based on your size?
At my scan the estimated weight is 340g which is 56th percentile for me. My daughter was just under the 60th percentile for my chart and was 6lb13 at birth born at 38+6. Based on fundal length my bump was 10th percentile. As a child she's 2nd percentile for height and 25th percentile for weight so its probably that's she's always been short proportionally. I don't know what estimate weight she was at 20 weeks.
Est weights even in the third trimester have huge errors. I know someone that was told that she was going to have a big baby and baby was born days later at 6lb15!

Thank you for the replies. I’ve settled myself a little. Some googling has told me it’s around the 72nd centile so big but not huge.

My previous children were 8lb 7 (2 weeks overdue), 7lb 11oz and 7lb 12oz so none of them were tiny but I was getting myself stressed I was going to be having a really, really big baby this time. Hopefully that’s not the case.

Need to try remind myself that scan measurements aren’t always accurate. I was told my 7lb 11oz daughter was going to be about 8lb 12oz at a growth scan.

Higher weight at this stage is amazing and a sigh of a thriving baby. If, goodness forbid, your baby was born early, then higher weight stands to them more than anything else. It doesn't really mean much for what centile your baby will eventually land on, its far too soon to tell. It'll even out as they grow. Congratulations 🥰
