I'm 34+4 today and dr said I'm measuring at about 38 weeks. Scheduled an asap growthultrasound. Anyone have a similiar experience? When did you actually end up in labor?
I was measuring big and had several growth ultrasounds due to gestational diabetes. At my ultrasounds I was always told she was big and in fact the last one I got I was told she would be at least 9 pounds if not bigger. I was induced and had a horrible 2 day induction and Ella was only 7lbs 15 oz!!!
When I was 16 weeks I was measuring 21 weeks, but baby was normal size on ultrasound. Then again at 32 weeks I was measuring 36 weeks so had another ultrasound done, still he was about average size on the ultrasound. Sometimes it can just be the positioning of the baby.
I've been measuring 3 weeks ahead for awhile. No concern, doesn't mean anything. Docs are WAY off when they estimate measurements....btw I'm 34 weeks tomorrow.
Are you sure of you last period date? They told my SIL her baby was 10 pounds and however many oz.s & that she HAD to have a csec. They were off by a pound. (Still don't know if I could deliver a 9 pounder through my vag LOL! Mine so far were all 6.5-7.5 pounds.
I was told all the way through that mine was big and 3 weeks before I gave birth the scan measured her at over 9llb and super long. They had extra midwifes around.because they were so worried and because I was 2 weeks late and she was 8llb2 and just over 50cm so yes, they can be really wrong x x
