My eldest was meant to be (brace yourself) 12lb, scan was at 37 weeks, projected to be about 13.5lbs if I was induced at 39 weeks (I’m very tall/big so this was obviously “normal” for me). Obvious BS. He was definitely overdue despite being born at “39 weeks” according to their dates and was 9lb.I posted on here a little while back about baby being transverse at 34 weeks…well she’s moved head down at the 36 week scan
however she’s had one hell of a growth spurt. Gone from 50th percentile to the 90th! Estimated at 7lb3oz currently. I know these growth scans are notoriously inaccurate so I’m not too worried. They have booked another for 39 weeks and if she’s big they’ll induce me then. It’s my first and I’ve had some high blood pressure so think they are being cautious but I’m happy to have her come a little early.
What kind of weights have you guys been given at 36 scans?
Flip flops are fine! I wear my birks.My induction leaflet recommends I bring slippers. I don’t really wear slippers in general. Do I really need them or can I get manage without them? Maybe wear my flip flops or something? What do you think?
I just brought my flip flops as don’t have slippers and they were fine and very much needed for the showers!My induction leaflet recommends I bring slippers. I don’t really wear slippers in general.

Statistically if you see a heartbeat at 8 weeks you have a 98% chance of a successful pregnancy. So I chose 8 weeks as 98% sounded quite reassuring to me.I’m sure this has probably been mentioned before but those of you who went for early private scans what week would you recommend waiting until? I’ve heard 8 weeks is the most popular but I’m not sure!
