I had a growth scan today due to measuring the same at my midwife appointment as I did two weeks prior. I had my scan and rather then measuring small as Id feared it turned out LO's abdominal circumference was off the charts.. she was struggling to get a good measurement so how accurate it was I don't know.. she sent me down to see a consultant who brushed it off as nothing to worry about as everything else is measuring fine. Looking through my notes I've noticed his AC measurement was high at my 20 week appointment too.. I've read it's common in women with GDs but my urine samples have been clear at every appointment so it can't be that can it?
On my notes it says estimated weight is 7lb 4, which worries me considering I still potentially have a few more weeks!

Has anybody else had a similar experience?

My son's was off the scale at my 28 week appt - I had the scan due to just being diagnosed with GD. By my 37 week appt the measurements were on the 90th centile with an estimated weight of 7lb 2oz. Using those calculations he should have been a shade under 9lb full term. I had him at 39+2 and he weighed a lovely 7lb 7oz so a lot less then their estimate.
