----A baby can weigh 6lbs or 8lbs at birth, and both are completely normal (and that's a pretty big difference when you think about it). So, there's a lot of individual variation going on too. All u/s measurements are compared to the averages and no is perfectly "average". If you're getting regular u/s and everything has always been ok before, then I wouldn't worry at all. Good Luck! --Christie
