Me again 🙄 getting bloods for GD tomorrow

I’ll be 37 weeks on Saturday I went for my routine growth scan today and baby has had a jump in weight. Last scan was at 33+6 he was efw 4lb 4oz, today at 36+5 efw 6lb 13oz. Has anyone experienced the same & the test come back ok? Or vice versa? I have to see a consultant on Wednesday next week too to sort a plan of action. This pregnancy has been fairly smooth sailing compared to my other two and I feel defeated 😩

That’s so weird , I live in Yorkshire and baby girl is on the bigger side , at 34+5 said she’s measuring 6lb 2oz, but because I’m past 35 weeks now they won’t do a GD test they said there’s no point as it’s inaccurate after 35 weeks??

Idk I feel like towards the end there’s different factors that weigh in, the growth scans have quite a margin of error of what babies weight can be, sorry not much help but wishing you best of luck and hopefully it’s good news 🤞🏽

Yep they wanted me to do another GTT after my 36 week scan, it was negative. I just have a big baby, but he's been big since 16 weeks when we went for a private gender scan and they measured his femurs. My husband is 6ft 4 and I'm 5ft 8 so we're not short either

I had a jump in growth almost identical to this, mine was actually 4lb 13oz at 32 weeks so a little bigger than your baby and no GD was mentioned! I think you’ll be fine xx

@Phoebe that puts my mind at ease! I should get the results by Tuesday or Wednesday next week x
