Any one else's baby measuring big??

Question

I just had my anatomy scan at 18w +2 and we're having a boy 💙💙 but I noticed on the screen he was measuring 6 days a head, i pointed it out to the tech and she said yeah he's measuring a little bigger then I asked if they will be changing my due date and she said no he is probably just have a growth spurt and it should even out. I'm just worried cause I've have 3 ultrasound prior to this all before 13 weeks and I always measured with my due date to my knowledge. Has anyone else experienced this? Could baby be bigger because I'm over weight? This is my
First so everything is freakingg me out :) lol thank you guys!! Btw I've lost weight since finding out I was pregnant 10-15 pounds (dr said it was fine as long as baby was growing👶🏼)

Answer

My baby boy is exactly 6 days ahead also. My uterus is also measuring a lot bigger. We are just having big boys. :) haha

Answer

My jumping bean is actually measuring 10days behind since first sono at 9weeks my doctor seems to be kinda panicked but I figure with my weight was a late ovulation month. I say don't worry about it all babies are different. I hate when doctors expect them to all fall in the same guidelines.

Answer

So r I've had three ultrasounds, 8 weeks & 5 days, 12 weeks and 20 weeks. Baby measured right on track at each one. At 28 weeks, baby was measuring 30, at 32 weeks, he was measuring 34 and at 33 weeks he is now measuring 38 weeks. My midwife is concerned that I'm gona have a large baby so they are sending me for scans to try and diagnose the problem. A week either way would probably be ok, it's only a worry when it's more than a few weeks either way. It could just turn out I'm having a large baby.  Having other health concerns at the moment also, so it could be that too x

Update: spoke to my regular OB. He said that the margin of error in second trimester ultrasounds are about 5 days so that makes sense :)

Answer

The same thing happened to me. I got my 20 week anatomy scan and he was weighing 2oz heavier and he was longer than he was supposed to be. But they didn't change my due date! I think I'm going to have a 9 pound baby!

Answer

I had my first US at 15+3. My little weighed 6 ounces, which is big for the gestation, US measured her 4-5 days ahead of my due date. I asked sonographer. She said baby looked good, everything where it should be, and US can be off +\-8 days. I've lost 3 pounds, but baby was fine :)
