Is this normal?

Question

I went in on the 16 to have sonogram I was 23 weeks and 4 days and they told my that my baby weighed about 1 pound 6 ounces is that normal or is my baby big?

Answer 1

Very normal...

Answer 2

How your baby's growing: Your baby is more than 11 inches long and weighs just over a pound. His skin is red and wrinkled. Blood vessels in his lungs are developing to prepare him for breathing. He can swallow, but he normally won't pass his first stool (called meconium) until after birth. Loud noises heard often in utero — such as your dog barking or the roar of a vacuum cleaner — probably won't faze your baby when he hears them outside the womb.

Answer 3

Answer 6

HOW MUCH DOES THE EMBRYO/FETUS WEIGH?

Until about eight weeks gestational age, the embryo weighs less than a gram. Below is a list of average weights by week of age. More accurate determinations of weight are made in the second and third trimesters by measuring the femur length and the abdominal circumference. This chart is reproduced in the Appendix. In general, male fetuses weigh more than females.

REMEMBER: These numbers are averages. Greater or lesser weights may be perfectly normal and healthy.
