measuring small. any experiences ?

Question

Baby is measuring 32 at 35 weeks. Dr saying it's fine but it's making me a little nervous. I just want to make sure she's growing the way she should be. Any experiences ?

Answer

Is that fundal measurments or ultrasound measurments?

Answer

My baby also measures small! But movement and heart rate is good. I'm being induced early though because my baby's small size is because of a fibroid on the placenta. But as long as the baby is moving good, everything should be fine.

Answer

My daughter was measuring small at my 36 week sonogram appointment too (I was actually 36 + 5 that day).  So I was sent to a specialist for a second, stronger sonogram.  The weaker machine had said she was 5 lbs 4 oz, but the more accurate machine told me 5 lbs 15 oz.  Her leg bones are measuring shorter but the consensus is that she takes after her parents.  I am 5'5" and my husband is 5'6".  And both of her parents have never worn clothes larger than size small and its in our genetics that we'll probably remain smaller.  So don't sweat it too much.  If they told you you're okay, don't worry.

Same boat .. first got an elective US at 28 weeks and baby was measuring at 25 weeks so I told my OB & she sent me for another US that I went to at 34 weeks and baby was measuring 32 weeks .. I'm 5'2 spouse is 5'6 we're both petite so the doctor said no worries baby is just petite and will probably only weight about 6lbs at birth and she said I don't expect you to have a big 8-10 lb baby lol so I wouldn't worry ..

Answer

Same here! Measurements are not 100% accurate. The important thing is to make sure the placenta is doing its job (through Doppler scan) I've been told to relax and try to eat as healthy as possible, to not exercise too much and rest on the left side after meals.
