36 week belly measuring small?

Question

So far I've been measuring on target, today the dr said my belly is measuring small and I have an ultrasound scheduled for next week. I'm going to be worried till then, anyone else have that issue and all is well?

Answer

I've only been growing by 1cm each week since 30 weeks. I was 36 at my 35 and 36 week appointment but they didn't mention anything. She's always said as long as it's within 2cm of your weeks it's fine

Answer

I've been measuring small for months, currently 37 + 3 and only measuring 32. I've had growth scans and he is a good weight, just carrying small. Fundal height isn't always very accurate. Try not to worry, as long as you can feel your little one wriggling away there's nothing to worry about xx

Answer

Mine is measuring smaller, normal, because she's lower and folding herself in weird ways. It's another sign labor is close. You won't gain much weight the last month and may even lose. I've lost a few lbs.

Answer

I've had this at every appointment and done multiple growth scans -- scary but ultimately always fine. Are you tall? My doctor suspects that is why I measure small-- I'm 5'10 -- baby mansion. That said, my friend who is petite experienced the same thing and baby was just tucked closely to her and measure normally.

GOod luck!

Answer

Since about week 30 been measuring small. At 34 weeks they sent me to check growth of baby. Everything was normal. My midwife says I prly won't have a giant baby or anything, and sure enough at 36 weeks I'm still measuring 33 weeks...so yea. I'm just hoping baby runs out of room and comes a little early ;) or if it's just a small baby it's nicer right? Lol good luck!

Answer

Im measuring 3 weeks behind with my belly but at my ultrasound she approx. Weighed 7lbs 4 oz. That was when i was 38 weeks, im 39 tomorrow. My doctor does the measurement but he isnt worried about it at all. Lol why do it then? Haha

Answer

Thank you for all the reassurance ladies! I'm just going to put it in the back of my mind till we see what's going on next week. Ugh.
