The weight is a guess, they can be 2lb out either way, I was told mine was 4lb 6 at 30 weeks, I am hoping they leave me be so I can go into labour after Christmas and new year. My due date is3rd Jan. They do seem to like telling us mummies that we are having big babies!!! Did u elect a c section? I am pro choice, as in its your choice. So hopefully if they turn around and say need get baby out now, u can say ok I will prep for theatre :) x

Hi mama...at 33 weeks my baby girl was 6 lbs!!! I dont have GD nor i am overweight, my belly is pretty small but is my third pregnancy, i only gained around 8 kg...just wait till the baby comes in case it is a really big baby read about Mc Roberts maneouvre and gasking Maneouvre in case that you will have a macrosomic baby. Take lots of care and enjoy your pregnancy!!!

My baby is also measuring 2-3wks ahead,  she's estimated weight of 5lb at 30+3 days..  They are inducing me at 36-37wks I will know more when I go back on 11th of Nov, as I do suffer gd , which is so hard to control I just know when I go back they gonna put me on tablets but I've cut every sugar item out literally on salads and veg but still get mess up readings,  anyways this worries me so much about a big baby I've had two other pregnancy and both my babies had been under 7 and half lbs,  so I'm literally pooping myself,  im sure they will have to give you a call section earlier than 39wks if growth continues..

Gosh wait it out :(  goodness sounds painful hes not even 7lbs and its alot of pressure for me!  Im overweight and gained like 40lbs all together but i dont have diabetes and my bp was 124/70 they said that was good.  Baby was 84% percentile today.   She said birth no matter when will be over 90 and 90 is hi as it can go on that scale.
