Not at 34 weeks- but mine was 1.7 kg at 30 weeks... if thats a comparison at all?
My friend had an underweight baby (the midsection wasnt growing ) and she was told to do barely anything for the last 5 weeks... a small walk around the block was all she was allowed. Her baby was small (weighed 2.8kg at birth at 41wks) but is healthy and happy!

2.4kg at 34 weeks for us, she was born 6lbs 13oz, mw didn't think bubs would hit 6lbs but we knew baby wouldn't be bigger than 7 lbs. Mw was happy with the result.

We were 2.3kg at 32 weeks, which we were told is the upper end of the normal range for 32 weeks and the average weight for 34 weeks.

Looks like maybe you just have small babies!
The average baby in NZ is 8lbs, but not everyone has an 8lb baby, dp and I were small babies so that's why we didn't expect a big baby!

I wouldnt worry too much, as long as bubs is growing they will be happy..
If it tapers off too much they might move your section forward a week but I think you will make it to term

Oh and another thought.. bubs might have had a length growth spurt and next scan may have caught up with tummy....
And there are not always accurate.... many a person has been given a weight estimation and had it turn out to be completely off! My 34 week scan says 1959gm +/- 286gm ...

Maybe let your mw know your other babies weights. My mw asked dp and I how big we were at birth as she thought Lily was measuring slightly small, then worried she wouldn't get to 6lbs, but said she'd be surprised if she was bigger than 7lbs and that she didn't think I would be able to birth a bigger baby...

Haha Kymme no, she was born via C-Sec thank god! lol don't think I would have walked the same ever again if I'd given birth naturally! Went thru 32hrs of labour before they decided she wasn't going to come out on her own tho! Had no idea she was going to be so big. Docs though 8-9lb at the most lol how wrong were they?!
