Belly measuring large?

Question

Ok so I went to dr last week and they measured my belly for the first time and they said it measure 17cm well according to my due date I was only suppose to be 16 wks... Well today my friend scanned me and the baby was measuring 17 wks 2days.. Should I be concerned that my belly was measuring 17wks last week and baby just now measures 17 wks this week?

Answer

+/- 2cm is totally considered normal.

Answer

They have mini growth spurts and slow times. That's why ultrasound dating gets less reliable after the first trimester.

Answer

I measured large with my son throughout my pregnancy. I only gained 15 lbs. He was a healthy 7lbs 8oz. I think it was the way the baby was positioned. Try not to worry mama!
