What should the baby weigh at 31 weeks?

I had a growth sono at 31 weeks and 2 days and the baby is measuring only 3.1 oz. :P

Doesn't that seem underweight? Should I be worried?

For those who've BTDT at 31 weeks, what's your baby's weight?

my Chat Icon weighed 2.14 at 29 weeks..they said she was in the 70th percentile for weight, they werent concerned with her size at all..even amidst all of the GD controversy.

All of the on-line places I checked say 3lbs is normal at 31 weeks. They really start bulking up in the last 5 weeks or so.

Do you mean pounds?

Yes, definitely lbs.! It would be a cause for alarm if the baby is only 3.1 oz. :D

Still tiny, but I meant to say 3 lbs. 1 oz.

Thanks for correcting!

At my 28 week- the baby weighed 2lbs15oz and was in the 83rd% for size (doctor said we were looking at a 9lb+ baby again), so I wouldn't be worried at all Chat Icon

The tech said they could be off by a pound. I hope so!

Mine were 3.13 and 3.15. Like everyone said they can be off up to 1 lb and every baby is different. Sono measurements aren't an exact science

I don't know for sure, but I am 32+ weeks and baby is weighing 5.8 lbs. I was told she is in the 81st percentile, and going to be a large baby!Chat Icon

Thanks for everyone's reassurance! I just got worried reading how everyone's baby is so big already at the 32 week growth sono!

At 32w my baby was measuring at 6lbs 2 oz, which is huge. Doc said average was about 3.5-3.75 so it sounds like you are right on track for 31 weeks! Chat Icon
