I tend to carry small (did with my first even though he was 8.5 lbs at birth), so I wasn't surprised the doc told me I'm measuring behind last week (I'm 33 weeks now). I started out weighing less, have gained less so far, and am def better about drinking water = less swollen this time around. And last time I was pregnant March - Nov, this time Nov - July.

Hugs!! I'm sure all is okay!

I measured small through out the whole pregnancy and had a perfectly healthy baby born at term weighing 6lbs 7ounces.

I measured small most of the third trimester and was getting regular ultrasounds. My son ended up coming early at 38 weeks but was 6 lbs. 3 oz. and was perfectly healthy. It ended up being a non-issue for us.

I measured small with my first and I'm measuring small with LO2. Last week's growth ultrasound showed that everything looked fine. This LO measured slightly smaller at the growth ultrasound at 38 weeks (7lbs 6oz) than LO1 did at 37 weeks (7lbs 8oz). I'm glad I got good enough measurements to alleviate concern but I don't put a lot of stock in them. LO1 arrived at 40w5d weighing 6lbs10oz.

I measured small both times. My boys were 8lbs 3 ounces at 37 weeks and 6lbs 4 ounces at 35 weeks 4 days.
