Fundal height ?

im expecting my 5th little one. I'm 13 weeks 1 day but my uterus is huge and is at my belly button already! I've only gained 4lbs but look like I'm 5 months pregnant. I know your uterus can grow bigger faster the more children you have, but my youngest is 3 and even with her I measured right on track each week. Has anyone else measured big and not had twins?? I wonder if it's twins but that just seems crazy... lol I've also been feeling little flutters the past week, I've never felt that this early. And I know my dates are not off. I'm (im)patiently waiting to see my midwife in 2 weeks...

    Yes, actually my little boy is measuring very big. I had an ultrasound last week and noticed at the top it said I'm 19 weeks and I was only 16 at the time. I called the following day and they said he is measuring big. They said they had to wait until the 20 week anatomy scan to either move my due date up or keep it the same. I'm anxious to find out, but I look really big too. I had to start wearing maternity clothes right away and have been feeling the baby move since 15 weeks now.

  • I'm on number 6, last baby (3 in August) was big, I'm also 13 weeks 1 day. Mine is just barely popping over the pelvic bone. In the morning, very first thing in bed, when my bladder is full, I can feel the uterus rounded out and sticking out about like a grapefruit (usually on one side or the other) but still a good 3 inches below belly button. Could be two! Or a big baby????
  • I always measured 4-6 weeks ahead with my son, which was my first. And through the whole pregnancy I only gained 12lb

    If you don't mind me asking.. Did he come early? Or on time? Just big baby boy!!
  • All my other babies were 8-9lbs and I measured on time. Hopefully this one isn't bigger... :-O lol
  • He came at 38 weeks and was 8lb 1oz

    According to the nt scan baby is only measuring a week ahead but my uterus is right below my belly button. Our son came almost a month early and was 6lbs9oz so I'm preparing for a delivery on the early side.
