The point is that - and I'm sure no-one would doubt
it - that scans have their place. In retrospect, I wish that I had had
more scans with my second child - he may then have had the chance that my third
did.
I put the last recorded weight which will be that recorded as birth
weight whenever it was done

My routine practice is not to weigh babies at birth. I do this for many
reasons but primarily to slow things down for the newly born soul. I
weigh the next day or so.
