measuring behind ?

Question

Is anyone else measuring behind what they should be ?? 
I'm meant to be almost 33 weeks but at my appointment today she said I'm measuring 28 weeks.. 
I have to go for another scan next week.
Is this really bad my doctor won't give me much information and I'm feeling un easy :/

Answer

Im 32w today and ultrasound Monday was showing my girl is measuring about 2.5 weeks behind and weighs 3lbs 4oz. I am petite but dr wants me to schedule another more detailed ultrasound within next 2 weeks. It's my first child so it is a little concerning. Her heartbeat is great and she is very active-I just might have a very tiny baby but I'm hoping she grows a bit more and puts in another pound by the next ultrasound. I get everyone's different with each baby but it is scary when it's your own.

Answer

Last week I was supposed to be 29weeks and I was measuring at 28 weeks.  I believe the reason sometimes we are measuring behind is because the conception date and the estimated due dates may be off a lil.  I know there could be other issues,  but as long as your doctor doesn't seem concerned you should be ok.

Answer

I'm 32.5 weeks and was measuring under but my doctor didn't seem too concerned, just wants me to have an ultrasound next week to check. Everything else is good though.

Answer

When I was pregnant with my first I never measured above 32 and he was happy and healthy and came out 6lb 12. He was just spread out long so didn't stick out much. Don't worry!!

Answer

Was the measurement a belly/uterus measurement or an ultrasound....either way they can be off by a few weeks!
