Comparing Measurements

[Doors27]

Just had our 20 week scan and here were our measurements:

at 20 weeks + 4 days

BPD: 47mm
HC: 171.5mm
TCD: 19.5mm
AC: 149mm
FL: 30mm
HC/AC: 1.15

We have been told we have to have another scan in two weeks time to check the baby's growth as they were concerned with the femur length (FL) measurement being so small. It could be a sign of Down's but as it is in the normal range and everything else is ok they aren't too concerned, but this doesn't stop us worrying. Our triple test was 1:5000 and my wife and I are both 29.

Has anyone else had a similar experience and was eveything ok?

At 20 + 2 my measurements were very similar....

HC 169mm
FL 31mm
AC 148mm
Est weight: 316g

FL only 1 mm more! And my hospital didn't seem concerned at all, they said everything was normal. I'm sure it's ok - you get another chance to see bubs though!

Hello

Here are our measurements at 20+3:-

HC 183mm
AC 165mm
FL 38mm
Neck 4.6mm
Not sure what all of the below ones are!
BPD 50mm
VA 7.0mm
VP 7.8mm
Cerebellum 19.5mm
Cisterna Magna 6.3mm

One thing I have spotted in comparison to other measurements posted is the FL ours is 38mm we are both tall as our my parents so looks like we have a baby with long legs
