Anyone else measuring big?!

Question

The past couple of appts I've been measuring 2wks ahead. However, from this past appt I am now measuring 3wks ahead  (31+3 measuring 34)!! Doc said that if I'm in the same range next time, she'll order a growth ultrasound. I don't have GD or anything that could be causing her to be a big baby... My OB just honestly thinks she's just BIG in general!🤣

Answer

My friend just had her first, and had been measuring big all along. They estimated an 8-lb baby, and Eva was born right on time at just under 6 lbs. So tiny! Turned out my friend had a large placenta and a lot of extra fluid. It seems really hard to get accurate measurements.

Answer

I'm 31 measuring 34 weeks. Had a growth ultrasound. He's just a big boy :) no GD. No extra fluid. We can do it! 
We just grow big babies!

Answer

I'm 35+1 and baby girl is measuring 8lbs 15oz on growth scan today. Confirmed there is no need to change dates. I just make big babies. Fluid is good. She is just legit big. My son was 10.9. I was 10.4 and my brother was 10.9. No gestational diabetes. Basically, we get to feel full term extra long! 😜 
Now I'm just hoping she doesn't make the papers! And can wear all the 0-3 and 3 month outfits I washed. (I have no newborn clothes or diapers, I learned that the first time)

Answer

We are currently going through this. I found out at my 30 week appt. that I'm measuring 33 weeks. I have my appointment next week to see if he's still ahead and they will do the ultrasound to see if it's him or fluid! I am confused though if this means my due date will change or if they might induce me later on or if everything remains the same.

Answer

Could be anything :) could be you're carrying big, baby is big or extra fluid . I'm 33 weeks and measuring 37 weeks. I had the scan and baby is not big! So, came down to me being all belly.

Answer

I'm 33 weeks measuring 3-4 ahead. The baby is measuring a week ahead and then I have bunch of extra fluid too. No diabetes or reason it's just how I am 🙂
