Hi all . I had my 28 week scan today and was told that baba is 2lb 6ounce .... I was wondering what weights everyone else had at this stage . Was told this was normal bit nice to hear everyone else's 🙂

Sugars are a bit up and down with being I'll over Xmas and.New year but hb1c was 50 .. which for me is a first in the whole 14+ years of diabetes !
 
Good news Kerry! I can't offer any info regarding weights - it's all a mystery to me! - but good to hear that things are going well, and well done on the HbA1c! 🙂
 
Hi Kerry congratulations on your HbA1c! :0)

Have never been told a 'weight so far' before..... But 'normal' sounds very encouraging. Well done!
 
Dunno if this helps, but my Mum was born at 30 weeks (in 1938!) and I'm told she weighed 3 lbs. I can't vouch for the accuracy, I suspect kitchen scales may have been used to weigh her because only a trainee midwife was on hand (Mum wasn't expected to survive the birth).
 
C's weight by scan at that point was estimated to be 3lb 4oz, and he was 10lb 11oz at birth (38+2). He did gain weight most rapidly at the end tho.

This one was about 2lb 6oz at 28w, and we'll see what the birthweight is next week!
 
Thanks for all replies ! 🙂

Monkey good luck on the birth of your baby ! Look forward to hearing babies birth weight ! X
