measuring ahead means big baby ?

Question

I'm 29 weeks today , and I'm measuring 33 weeks . so I'm guessing that means he might be big ? any one measured weeks ahead and had a big baby ? or does it not really mean anything ?

Answer

If your fundal measurement was big, baby could be in a funny position causing an off measurement. You could be carrying excess amniotic fluid. Or baby could be big. Ultrasound can tell better but can still be off by 30%

Answer

My daughter measured 6 weeks bigger from 20 weeks on and was only 7lbs 10oz...thought for sure she was going to be 10lbs 😂

Answer

They told me he would be 11+lbs he was 8lbs 15oz. I was measurig 3 weeks ahead

Answer

Not necessarily.  With my son I measured ahead and he was a bigger baby  (9lbs) I'm measuring larger now and had a growth scan a few days ago and she's measuring exactly on point.  It's really hard to tell ...

Answer

Yeah measurements change for a lot of reasons it is far from an exact science. Only way to know for sure is for the baby to arrive. Lol.

Answer

Just means you have a bigger baby! Sometimes things work out though, for example mine was measuring 4 weeks behind and now she's perfect and measuring on time! It won't change your due date or anything so nothing's really different (:
