Any stories of measuring ahead?

Question

I'm a FTM and so far, pregnancy has been going well. Baby has been growing fine so I was told no more ultrasounds until delivery. I just had my 32 week appointment though  and my doctor mentioned baby was measuring ahead at 34 weeks. Could this mean my due date will be adjusted earlier or the baby will be heavier when born? She scheduled an ultrasound for my 36 week appointment so we'll know more then but in the meantime, any stories to share?!

Answer

I had a growth scan yesterday at 33 weeks and 4 days because my fundal height was measuring 4 weeks ahead of what it's supposed to be. My baby girl weighs 6 pounds compared to the normal average of 4 pounds. She is in the 89th percentile for her gestation. Her legs are measuring 3 and a half weeks ahead of her due date and everything else is measuring 2 and a half weeks ahead. She is projected to be about 9 pounds or larger but my doctor said they will not change my due date, induce me, or schedule a csection. They are going to let nature take its course unless a medical need arises. They don't consider the weight of your baby to be a medical need for intervention unless you have gestational diabetes or your baby is measuring small due to growth resistrictions. I have a high risk pregnancy due to thyroid disease and they still want to let nature take its course.

Answer

I'm measuring ahead (1 week) but midwife and I think it's because I'd lost so much weight by booking in appointment. Being measured against 19.4 BMI when I'm usually 22. Midwife isn't worried xx
