Baby measuring behind ?

Question

Okay so I  have gotten a few ultrasounds done this pregnancy . According to what babies measurements have been  I should be 8 weeks and 6 days but today baby measured at 8 weeks and 1 day.  Heartbeat is still nice and strong but I am a nervous wreck.  Has this happened to anyone else ? I dont know how to feel

Answer

Babies develop at all different rates. Since it’s less than a week off you likely have nothing to worry about.  Always ask your doctor if your nervous or unsure of something!  They’ll tell you if they are worried.

Answer

Mine has always been measuring a few days behind at every ultrasound. My dr isn’t worried about it.

Answer

When I was pregnant with my son I had a “two week growth lag” the entire pregnancy. I got ultrasounds every other week and they said he was growing evenly so they weren’t worried and said he would just be born small. I was induced at 41 weeks because they were worried about size and he came out 8 lbs 4oz. Growth lag my butt!! They can’t tell much from an ultrasound growth wise. It’s all a guessing game.
