Bb weight at 3rd trimester

Question

Hi mummies! Would u mind sharing your baby’s weight at 29 weeks/ 32 weeks in during pregnancy? I had an appt at W29 and my bb was 1.4kg, gynae says he’s considered overweight so I was told to cut down on carbs, certain fruits and sugar intake. I do not have GD but so far I’ve gained ~12kg. Also what’s the ideal weight range for natural birth? Is there any other ways to reduce bb weight?I’ve tried to avoid carbs (rice & noodles) and have lost about 1kg in a week. Not sure if it’s a good thing.#firsttimemom #advicepls #firstbaby

During my last appointment at 28 weeks, my baby was 1.22kg and my gynae says she’s of ideal weight 😀 so I don’t think your baby is considered very overweight? Maybe just control your avocado/durian intake if you are consuming them and are concerned about bb weight gain.

Im week26 and babys 1kg now. 🤣 My firstborn at 3.215kg at week38. as long as baby is healthy should be okay? alternatively change to healthy snacks like nuts when you feel like snacking!

3rd baby @ 30 weeks scan, 1.6kg. 😊My 1st child was born 3.88kg @ 38+6, natural with epidural (but the epidural was administered pretty late and only fully took effect when baby was already out 😅😅). My 2nd child was born 3.5kg @ 38+5, natural without any pain relief (not even laughing gas), cause I wanted to experience all natural process. 👍I dont think there is an ideal weight for baby, but depends on your body size and your gynaes advice.
