Ultrasound baby weight accuracy

Is ultrasound baby weight accurate? I m 37w and Dr told me my baby is at 3.2kg, i wonder if baby weight via ultrasound is accurate coz i dont gain much weight though... And Dr also said, for normal delivery, baby should not be > 3.5kg, so i might be induced before EDD :s, else baby will be too big for normal delivery Appreciate your experience sharing!

It’s just an estimate. However, the ultrasound weight won’t be that much different from actual. The baby’s last ultrasound weight before birth and actual weight at birth were 3.25 kg and 3.23 kg, respectively.
