Just had my mw appointment this morning and it was the same one as last time who is a little bit off and just does everything as quickly as she can.
She said all was fine - urine, BP, baby 2-3/5ths engaged, waved the tape measure at me and I was out the door.
Got home and looked at my notes and realised she'd put down that I was 36 weeks, not 38 weeks and measured me at 36cms...
I phoned her up when I saw this and she just said it was probably fine and due to baby moving down a bit more and that the fundal height measurement can be 2 cms out. I don't think she measured me properly and just put 36 as she thought I was 36 weeks!
Anyway, she said I could go back next week at 39 weeks to be measured again instead of waiting another 2 weeks but now I'm just worrying
I have been weighing and measuring my waist every week and they are still increasing so hopefully nothing to worry about.
I know the fundal measurement can be inaccurate but that doesn't stop me worrying!!
