How big was your LO? Did the doctor tell you  that you were going to have a big or small baby?

Re: Another if you have a baby

  • Mine didn't say eithe way, but the nursery nurse told us our dates must have been wrong becuase Britton was "fully cooked" due to his color and the way his feet and hands were bent.  He was almost 2 weeks early according to the dr's due date..

    He was 8lbs 6 oz  and 21 inches.

  • mia was 5 lbs, 15 oz and 19 inches.  none of my doctors ever told me what they thought one way or the other.  i always measured spot on, and i didn't have any u/s's after 20/21 weeks.
  • Dexter was 8lbs 7oz and they estimated he'd be "at least seven-and-a-half pounds". He was pretty spot on the whole time and my due date was definitely right because I know the exact day I got pregnant.

     

  • I always measured a few weeks ahead toward the end but they kept telling me that their guess was 7.5. When I was pushing though the DR said this is going to be a big boy. He was 8lbs 10 oz and 21 1/2 in.

  • I had u/s every other week because of my Gestational Diabetes so the week before I was induced it said that he was right at 8 lb and when we was born he was 8 lb 5 ounces and 21 inches

  • Liam was 1-2 days late, but my doc told me weeks in advance that he would be early because he was measuring large. He was 21 inches and 8 lbs, 4 oz.

    I had a late u/s and everything seemed on track, though.

     

  • We were told the whole time he was going to be a big baby because of the GD so I just expected he would be and he wouldn't have been if he wasn't three weeks early. My dr said if he wasn't born when he was and was full term he would have been about 8 and 1/2 to 9 and 1/2 so I'm glad he came when he did at 6lbs 7ozs LOL
  • Sophie was 6lbs9oz and 20 inches long...my doctor never made a guess.  When I was admitted to the hospital, the OB/GYN there say that we had a smaller baby! :)
