During your pregnancy, you might hear a range of terms that you've never heard before. Your obstetrician will be happy to explain anything that you would like to learn more about.

Macrosomia is a medical term for a baby who is significantly larger than average during pregnancy or at birth. While doctors use ultrasounds and fundal height measurements to suspect or estimate a large baby during pregnancy, an official diagnosis of macrosomia is confirmed by weighing the newborn immediately after birth.

Macrosomia is different from being "large for gestational age" (LGA). LGA means the baby's weight is above the 90th percentile for the specific number of weeks into the pregnancy, whereas macrosomia is an absolute weight threshold regardless of gestational age.
