I had a dr's appointment on Tuesday, and my belly was measuring 32 weeks but I am only 27 weeks! Does this mean my baby is huge?

  1. OMG on the 1st answerer!  That was just uncalled for!  The measurement of your 'fundus' is not always accurate.  When I was 8 weeks, my belly measured 12.  Now it's measuring 2 weeks smaller than I am.  I had an ultrasound done about 2 weeks ago which showed the baby at a normal weight.  Don't worry.  I'm sure you're baby is fine.  


  2. With my first child I was really small. I looked 5 months when I was almost about to give birth and my baby was huge!! He was 8lbs 4oz, 21 inches!! Nobody could believe that I had such a big baby because my belly was so small. I am now pregnant with my second child and it's the complete opposite...lol

    I am only 3 months and I look like 5 months.

  3. yes it means the baby is big but it could be other factors  

  4. I don't remember what I measured with my first son (he's 5 going on 6 now), but my tummy was HUGE!  People asked if I was having twins when I was 7 or 8 months pregnant.  Anyway, my son ended up weighing 7lb 7 oz, so he wasn't big at all. I was expecting at least a 8lb baby because my brother and sisters all were.   Also, I did gain a lot through out my pregnancy (about 65 lbs total).  And oh, during the later months my doctor was able to feel around my tummy and she estimated just by touching my belly how big she thought he would be and she wasn't too far off because she said 7 1/2 lb.  Anyway, congrats!    

  5. Your due date is my b-day. I hate you.

  6. Ok, that tina girl has one sick mind and everyone is different with how huge they get when they are pregnant.  

  7. Not necessarily!   with my son I measured almost 2 weeks behind and he was huge for being 2 weeks early!

    It kind of depends on the way the baby is laying a little too. right now my daughter prefers the bottom part of my uterus so I measure small, then she is pushed up to the top and I measure weeks ahead.

    If your doctor doesnt seem worried about her size you shouldnt either  

    good luck to you..

    My due date is 2 days after yours!!

  8. im 32 weeks now.. but yeahhh lol

    ohh sorry i forgot the question

    i measure smaller cus im taller maybe your carrying more water then baby ..lol

  9. not nessicarily, i was 18 weeks and measuring 22 and my daughter came out weighing 7 pounds and 1 oz. but she was 3 weeks early.

  10. the position of the baby can affect fundal height, also there is a possability your due date was calcultated incorrect, if they do think it will be very large, they may advise you will need a cesearian
