    I had my 26 wk doc appointment on Thursday and I am measuring 28.5 cm, hopefully just a large healthy baby and nothing to be worried about :)

    Hi.  I'm looking for an answer to the same question.  I was 6cm ahead at 23 weeks and seem to be that far ahead still at 27 weeks.  I see the Midwife Thursday for my GD test.  likga what happened with you?

    Hey this happened to me! I went for my 27 weeks appt and OB measured me at 31cm. That's a whole freaking months, she didn't seem concern and I asked if I should eat less and she said no. She said that I petite and short so that's why. I was worried when I got home so I called the nurse and asked why that happened? They told me it could be the way the baby is positioned when they measured, or too much amniotic fluid which happened to some peoples.
    My glucose test came and I have developed gestational diabetes, which is another reason why baby could measured larger :(.
    But I don't know 100%, I just googled it. Tomorrow I have an appt with nutritionist so I will know for sure.
    But everybody is different don't worry too much, peoples said the measurement are not akways correct anyway.

    At 24 weeks i was measuring 31so my dr sent me for an ultrasound. Baby was measuring about a week ahead and fluids were a little high but nothing to worry about. Alot of it has to do with the babys position too. Now im 31 weeks and only measuring slightly ahead. Most likely due to baby moving.
