How accurate where your.....
growth scans?
I had mine yesterday due to my gestaional diabeties so was 33+4 and lil man was weighing in at 6lb 1oz...i know there not 100% accurate but have never had one in pg b4. I do have big babies my last lo was 7lb 5oz but this was at 34+5 so not a normal weight for that gestation :roll:
Hes measuring fine on everything else, its just his tummy and they cant plot it anymore - hes off the scale...this is down to me being diabetic and one of the horrible side effects of it...hes packing on to much and theres nothing that can be done, i dont have my consultant til next week and have another growth scan then...they where inducing me in 4wks anyway...but looks like this may be bought forward if his growth continues like this, im just hoping for some stories where the growth was way out
thanx in advance girls, kim - 34wks 2morrow! xxxx

So i guess it could go either way - could be bigger than the estimate...or smaller - im prepared its probably going to be the latter because of the diabeties, my 1st was 8lb 6oz at 38weeks so hoping hel be no bigger than that - otherwise im screwed and need to get rid of all the newborn stuff lol! He does feel bigger than the other 2 - alot stronger and i feel like im going to pop already...hopefully next weeks scan will show hes slowing down as i would of been on insulin for 3wks then....! xxxx
Can't beleve you are 34 weeks!! Doesn't seem long since you BFP!!
Anyway - I had growth scan at 34+6 and Alf was measured at 4lb 9oz - he was born next day at 4lb 9oz!! Spot on for me!
See you over here soon!!
