  Re: 33 wk check up and OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reply Contact I don't know what a fetal weight check is but my doctor did an u/s at my 30 week appt and the measurements said my little man was 4 lbs 13 oz. Then the lady at my insurance office went in and got an u/s on her 38 week and it said baby was 7 lbs 14 oz and 2 days later she gave birth to a 6 lb 10 oz baby. So if it was an u/s I would say there is some margin of error.

  Re: 33 wk check up and OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reply Contact oh yes there can be a margin of error... my last dd... last year was checked 4days before she was born... and found to be 9 lbs.. and she was 10lbs 2.4 oz at birth... so I do make big babies... and the guy that did that U/S ... did this one as well.. and yes a fetal weight check is an U/S where they do measurements... of the head, abdomen and length.. abdomen is the biggest deciding factor though I am just looking at the big picture so to speak... I have a fight on my hands to get a VBA2C.... and this can hamper that... cause the doc does take stock in these U/S and what it can do to me.... we'll be checking weight every 2 weeks now...

One was 6 lbs 12 oz the other was 7 lbs 1 oz.... I tend to not really listen to their weight "guessing" anymore. I hope they consider your VBAC.

I had posted the Big Baby post earlier and am also worried about a c-section. My tummy has really gotten huge the last few days so I'm really hoping that is just me, and not my baby growing rapidly. Good luck!

The next measurement/weight check for me will be in a week. (They said they only take measurements once every 3 weeks) However I do have an ultrasound to check the fluid levels and such so maybe I'll have more pics to share tomorrow!
