I went to the doctor today and she said I'm measuring 3 weeks ahead. I'm having an ultrasound on friday to see just how big my lo is. The doctor assured me that it's nothing to worry about. So my question is- has anyone else had this experience? If so, did you deliver early or was your baby just large?
TIA
Re: measuring 3 weeks ahead
this is probably a really stupid question so for give me! Is it your bump that is measuring big or the babies measurements are big during U/S?
I was told that my belly was measuring big so I may be getting another U/S just to check lo out and see what he measures as well.
I am measuring about 2 weeks ahead but I also have a lot of belly fat prior to being pregnant. My doc said that it is biggest reason why I am measuring so large.
I think thats a great question-for me, we knew our LO was measuring ahead since they took measurements of him during our A/S and they noticed he was growing larger than how far along I was. I then had my belly measured at my follow-up appointment a week later and it held true with that as well. Howevre, a few weeks later I was back on track. So I think it's a combo of things-my OB said Lo had a growth spurt and that is common. HTH
