Measuring about 5 weeks ahead?

Question

update: 
Went for my ultrasound today, and she is measuring 4 lbs 14oz and everything seems normal. 
Does anybody have experience or know what the doctor will usually do if you’re measuring about 5 weeks ahead during the 3rd trimester? I’ll be 31 and 6 and I’m measuring about 36 weeks. They’re sending me for an ultrasound. But does that mean I’ll likely be induced early?

Answer

I'm 33 weeks measuring 36 weeks. We are doing a growth ultrasound at 36 weeks to see what the estimated fetal weight is at that point.

Answer

I was measuring ahead and then an ultrasound showed my baby is in the 62nd percentile and totally average for 32 weeks. The tech said ultrasounds are way more accurate than fundal measurements. 
Before the scan, my doctor explained that if the baby was measuring big after the ultrasound, they’d do a repeat one at 36-37 weeks and see if he’d slowed down a bit. If not, they’d discuss induction at 39 weeks or if he’s super huge, c section. 
So if your doctors are similar to mine, you’ve got some time before they’ll take action if your baby’s on the bigger side.
