Baby at week 22 heavier than usual

22 weeks pregnant and baby’s estimated weight was 580g whereas on the app it shld be around 430g. Anyone here had a similar experience and baby was normal weight at birth? Or is this an indication of a heavier baby and possibly need for early induction and csect?

There could be measurement error and you are in week22 and there a long way to labour. My girl was of a heavier weight at early pregnancy and then I was diagnosed with GD at wk24, and then my girl weight increase very slowly (diagnosed of pre eclampsia at wk34). Not trying to scare you, but a lot of things can happen from now to labour. Hence, you do not have to worry now. Try to eat healthy!
