How much did your LOs weight at 30+ weeks?

Hi!

I am just curious how much your LOs weight at 30+ weeks?

My boys: Baby A is 3 pounds, 12 ounces and Baby B is 4 pounds, 1 ounce.

I have gestational diabetes just recently diagnosed 2 weeks ago and started insulin last week.

I am not sure if they are big because they are boys, that I am lucky that they are big and healthy (the ultrasound doc and tech at the hospital where I get my ultrasounds said they looked healthy and on spot for their developmental age), or because of the GD.

I went for my 4D ultrasound today and the tech and the owner were mentioning that this was the first time they seen big twins with chubby cheeks

Thanks

My boys' were born at 32 weeks, and weighed 3 lbs. 3oz. and 3lbs. 9oz. I did not have gestational diabetes, so I think your guys are doing pretty well at the weights they are posting. Remember, the weights could be off a little either way.

Thanks Margarete Anne. That makes me feel better.

Congrats on your boys!

My B/g/g trips were born at 32w5d. My son weighed 4lbs 5oz at birth. This was within 2 oz of the US estimate of his weight around 30w. Margaret Anne is right, even a fraction of a cm can cause the weight estimate to be off. Good luck!
