The last two times that I went to the doctor my LO was measuring 2 weeks ahead. Today he measured 3 weeks ahead (by fundal height). I know that fundal height measurements can be off a lot, so I'm trying not to be concerned. But today the doctor requested a growth ultrasound to make sure that everything is okay. I could really use some T&Ps that everything is okay with the baby.
Thank you in advance! I will update as soon as I get back.

Good luck and try not to worry- those u/s can be off weight estimates by 5 pounds. I hope everything turns out okay

T&P's that LO is healthy and all is well! I had a growth u/s too because I was measuring behind, but you are correct, fundal measurements are not very accurate.

Thanks for all the T&Ps! I love you guys.
The u/s tech said that he is measuring at the 82nd percentile, which she said means he is big but not GIGANTIC. She re-measured everything from the anatomy scan and said that I will hear more from my doctor.
She also said that if his growth slows down to average size growth he will be over 9 lbs at birth (assuming 40 weeks). If he continues at his current rate he will be larger. *gulp*
All in all she didn't seem too concerned and didn't mention any problems that she saw, but I'm not sure if she is allowed to tell me that or if I am supposed to wait until the doctor calls.
Thank you again for your kind words and thoughts. *hugs*
