Measuring 29cm at 28+5 :)

I had my midwife appointment yesterday and I'm measuring well I think....no idea if that's normal/good etc haha but the midwife seemed pretty happy with how bump is going xxx

I think it averages around 1cm for every week, so for example 30cm at 30 weeks. So sounds like you are pretty much spot on.

Measuring externally isn't a very effective measurement anyway as a lot can make a difference, such as bloating or position of the baby. If suddenly you were measuring way differently or there wasn't much growth (or too much) then you would be sent for a scan which is a more accurate way of measuring the baby.

Yup, you are measuring spot on. As Mrs said 1cm per week starting from an average of 25cm at 25 weeks x

Ooh okay I was 28cm at 27+5 too so clearly he's growing well he's been in a similar position for weeks now so hopefully everything. Continues to go well. Thank you both xx
