Does uterus measuring bigger mean a bigger baby?!

Question

I'm freaking out. I'm 30 weeks but my stomach is measuring 33cm. I should only be measuring between 28-32cm. I'm terrified of having a huge baby. My first born was 8lbs 11oz and did major damage to my lady parts for like 2 weeks. I'm hoping to have a 7-8 pounder!

Answer

It doesn't necessarily mean you have a big baby. You could just have a lot of fluid. I have both a big baby and extra fluid 😂

Answer

I was measuring 34 weeks at my 32 week appointment. And then, at my 34 week appointment, I measured 34 again. Doctor said it was probably just a growth spurt.

Answer

I was 32 weeks measuring 43 weeks. Join the club 😂

Answer

I measured 2 weeks ahead towards the end of my first pregnancy and my girl was above average size - 8 lb 3 oz.

Answer

I'm measuring 33cm at 33 weeks and the midwife felt the need to put me in for a gestational diabetes test on the 1st even though I'm not at any risk of having it and this is the first time he's measured bigger! And only a week ahead, not to mention she measured on a full bladder.. Not looking forward to starving myself for hours for a test that'll most probably come back negative!! 😤

Answer

I'm actually in Dr office right at this moment because I measured 4 weeks ahead on monday. They're doing ultrasounds and non stress tests twice a week (I'm high risk). Up to 2 weeks ahead is normal, they'll send you for testing if you're over 3 weeks ahead normally.

Answer

Ok lady's I'm freaking out too I'm just whent to see mi ob today and two weeks ago I was 28weeks and she said I was messuring 31 weeks today I'm 30 weeks and messuring 36 weeks now she is sending me to a high risk Pregnacy doc and I do have digestion al diabetes

Answer

I always measured 2 weeks ahead with my first and he was just 7 lbs 8 oz. I'm 5'3 and delivered at 140 lbs so I don't think it always means bigger baby.

Answer

I'm 30 weeks uterus measuring 4 weeks ahead so 34. I had to have an ultrasound today and baby is also measuring a couple weeks ahead! He's 4 1/2 pounds. So I guess my fundal height was correct even tho a lot of people say it's wrong -_-

Answer

Sorry, I have no idea. But I'd like to know the answer too. 
Best wishes!
