In my case they rid me the exact same thing. She was just barely going to be 5 lbs that. She was 6 lbs 11.9 ounces
I really hope they're underestimating her weight also. Thanks for your comment.
I have really small girl babies! My first was girl 6.3, second was boy 7lbs. My 3rd was boy 6.11 and Im currently pregnant with 4th girl is about 4.5ish lbs and im 34 weeks. Dont be too worried! If you think about it 25 years ago it was normal to have a 5 to 7 lbs baby! The only reason babies are soo big now a days is because of all the extra crap pumped into our food!!
The same thing was just told to me on yesterday because my baby boy is only 4lbs10oz right now and they believe that the two fibroids I have are causing growth restrictions like they did with my baby girl who we ended up delivering @ 38wks and she was healthy but 5lbs 2oz. My initial due date is Feb 19th but the cesarean was scheduled for Feb 12th and now due to sga (growth) my cesarean may be bumped up sooner dependi.g on my 2 Nst test appts, 1 bpp/growth appt and my 1 ob visit weekly.
Best wishes to you. ..I'm sure that your baby will be perfect and healthy.
I had my 2nd child at 37 weeks and she came out 5 pds 7oz perfectly fine healthy baby. Not one thing was wrong with her she is 5 years old now average size and going to be in gifted next year.
Keep in mind your baby is gaining a half a pound a week now, so @ 38 close to 6pds @39 over 6pds @ 40 close to 7pds = average size baby....I wouldn't be concerned at all
Idk. Honestly I've never been told hoe much my babies weight. But my first was 5 lbs 12 oz.. completely healthy. I thought she was perfect.
Are you guys in America ?because here in the uk they never did that and my daughter was 6lbs 8oz so she was small but no one knew because I never had another scan... She was fine but they were fussing with here straight after but she was fine...
My baby was growth restricted and I had to be induced. I had an aminocentisis to check for lung development and once it came back her lungs were developed I was induced the next morning. She weighed exactly 4lbs. They never did know why she stopped growing. I was 36 weeks. She's healthy and happy now. Only 11 days in NICU.
im from the uk n they r talkin bout inducing me as im 29wks n my baby only weighing 1.8lbs n sud b 2.5lbs by nw... I hv crohns disease n she is not gettin what she needsto grow n will hv better chanceof growin outside womb... I hv wkly scans, no date yet to b induced as of yet, but dr says highly likely to b b4 35wks x
Im from uk.. my 2nd pregnancy my son was small they induced me at 36 weeks as from 28 weeks he did not put weight on... he was born 3lb11oz and only one day in NICU, he is now a normal healthy 3 year old. This time im reading small but she is following the graph.. im not worried as they are keeping an eye on me with scans and extra consultant appointmemts..
Wow I really hope I don't have to be induced. I started a high protein diet since my last ultrasound and she's gained almost 1 lb in 2 weeks. I'll obviously do whatever is best for my baby but I really want her to come on her own.

This happens a lot, and usually by the time the baby comes, they have gained just fine. But there is sometimes a risk, if your placenta has stopped feeding the baby. So I would say let them induce, if they feel it's necessary.
