Small head size?!?!?

Question

I'm 32 weeks today with twin girls. Yesterday I had a regular biophysical profile and Baby As head is measuring small compared to her body. I'm freaking out about it. My dr didn't seem to be worried. He said he wasn't sure how accurate of a measurement it was because of her position and we're going to measure again in 2 weeks. But I can't help but stress about it. I made the mistake of googling it and now I'm freaking out even more because it could be due to mental defects. Has anyone else experienced this? 😖😩😫

Answer

I've heard measurements can be off depending on the day or even the tech!  I was scared cuz baby girl was measuring small this week and my doctors exact words were "we are human and sometimes our measurements can be off" (talking about his techs) so maybe your doc is waiting to see how she measures at the next one.  I'm almost 29 weeks and although I feel less nervous than I did the first trimester, the fact that it's getting close does freak me out with every little thing that doesn't seem "normal."  I'll tell you what people have said to me and that's to try to stay calm and be positive.  If everything's fine at the next u/s you've stressed yourself over nothing.  And it's better for the babies if you can try not to think/worry about it too much (I need to work on this too).  Hang in there I hope you get good news next time! ❤️

Take a deep breath mama! Measurements can be very wrong. They thought my little one was going to be huge, but she was born 7 lbs 7 oz.
