Baby weight!

We just had our last ultrasound and we're 34 weeks. Baby is about 5lbs 2oz already! At this rate she will be almost 8 lbs or more if she goes all the way to due date. How big are your babies, or whats everyone's thoughts on her weight. I know it's normal, just like to compare, even if everyone is different.

Wow I feel so left out I haven't had a us since I found out the gender at 20/24 weeks n she was only ounces then.  My doctor hasn't made this pregnancy very enjoyable I'm due for a C-section on the 3rd I don't even know if my baby continued to fully develope all the way (god forbid)

My first was expected to be 6lbs 3oz a week before I had him, he was 7lbs 9oz at birth. My daughter was expected to be about 7lbs 2oz at 37 weeks and was born a week later weighing 8lb 8 oz. This pregnancy at 36 weeks baby is measuring 7lbs 5oz. Good luck and congrats
