[quote=Anonymous]Just had this discussion with my OB about my 3rd baby. 2nd baby was a massive 10lber who had a shoulder dystocia. My 20 week ultrasound showed 70th percentile. My current baby is 40th percentile on it's 20 week ultrasound and that's what we're using. My doctor isn't recommending a c section based on that (and I'm having a girl and girls have less shoulder dystocias), nor an early induction. Kinda crazy that 20 week ultrasounds are as accurate as you can get in a pregnancy. My fundal height was on target for a 7lber when I was pregnant with my 10lber, so that's not even super accurate. The OB at the hospital when I checked in to deliver my 2nd baby was like "Oh no- this is NOT a 7lb baby!" but that was the first time someone mentioned my baby could be big. I hadn't gained too much weight and my stomach wasn't super large (but my sides did stick out more)[/quote]
