If your LO is measuring large

what is s/he measuring?

My biophysical profile today estimated him to be 5 pounds 6 ounces and/or 35w6d.

  • At my 26 week appointment they said he's measuring about 10 days ahead.  I'm not sure if he had just gone through a growth spurt or if he's continuing to grow at a rabbit's pace.  I'm sure my appointment next week will help verify that!

  • I was told she is in the 90th percentile and the tech said she was 4 lb and I *think* he said 3 oz. (This was at 30w 2d).  

    I have GD so I suggested that is why she was big.  The u/s tech said she was "symmetrically" big and would probably be that size anyway. 

    Our first little one is getting big!

  • He was measuring exactly one week ahead at my 31 wk u/s, but they didn't even mention it to me. I guess they found it irrelevant. I'm glad I paid attention to the numbers on the screen, though, or I'd never know.

  • Last week, my LO was measuring 2 weeks ahead and his head was measuring 3 weeks ahead (at 27w2d he was 29w3d). I have been measuring two weeks ahead by fundal height for months, so it doesn't surprise me.

  • At 29 weeks LO was 3lb 6oz which if I'm not mistaken that is ahead of schedule.  They didn't mention how far ahead we are by weeks I have an appt on next Wednesday and then 2 weeks after that will be my last u/s.  I guess they will tell me at that point.

    On Wednesday E was measuring almost 34 weeks... Fundal (sp?) height is right on track so.. I dunno. I'm only 31 weeks on Sunday though. Has anyone been told that measuring big may result in early arrivals?

     

    I was wondering this myself.  Perhaps so many of the Dec LOs are trying to escape because they are running out of space in there.

  • At my last u/s she was measuring 12-14 days ahead.
