Got midwife today

Just had my appt and I'm measuring 36cm(!) and midwife thinks bubs feels like a fine size and can't understand how she'd be measuring small in the scan. V confused now. Have a Doppler san at 4 on the umbilical cord and may ask them to do some quick measurements because I am getting confused with the conflicting measurements!
well I'm huge and am only measuring 2 wks ahead have been for wks now, so its confusing how little lady is small on the scan now your measuring bigger then your dates.
dunno what going on with you annie lol hope they find out soon
 
Annie, I reckon if the hosp thinks your small and your mw thinks your big you are going to have a bang on average sized baby!

I had a 4D scan about 6 weeks ago where the sonographer thought I was measuring bigger by 3 weeks but my mw didn't bat an eyelid when I raised my concerns with her and said as long as the bump measurement and what she could feel was OK then she was not worried.
 
annie thats well weird! hope you get some answers! xx
 
Yep, am really going to push the sonographer on it this afternoon - try to get some peace of mind. Even closing the gap a bit would be reassuring.
 
Appointment well really well!! blood pressure is back to my early pregnancy level, no protein and she is head down and facing the tight way!!

Apparently I have very little tummy fat and not much fluid but mw seemed fine about it. Measuring 1cm above the fundal line but I'd rather she come out healthy!

Phew! Good day now time for some countdown!

Midwife appointment went really really well, measuring exactly on dates, mw thinks he'll be bigger than DD but she was only 6lb 5oz so I was expecting that anyway. She is still all behind me for home birth and has advised me to make a rough birth plan that I can then tweak and make more concrete after my consultant appt on the 15th September x she spoke more about the natal hypnotherapy and encouraged me to keep that up which I will be doing anyway as I LOVE it! All in all really positive appointment. Oh and she said that I'm looking fabulous! Yay!!!! Downside was having blood taken for anaemia tests which she explained and it's only a downside because I hate having bloods took! She also said that babies can go through growth spurts so Annie maybe your lil girl didn't grow for a couple of weeks and has now had a growth spurt? Hope that's all it is chick x
