Had my maternity visit today with doctor. Told them I felt huge! And it's not all in my mind. My bump is measuring 2 weeks ahead. Nothing to worry about if gap doesn't get too big. So... In my mind... I'm in my third trimester (not 25 but 27w)& I envision my boy coming mid March instead of April 1st.
I delivered my first a month early and now I wonder... .... Or maybe it's just gonna be a big baby this time.
 
My 2nd measured 2 weeks ahead. He was born 5 days over due but was 9lb lol
This bubba was measuring 21 weeks at 19 weeks but measured on track 4 weeks later.
 
I measured 6 weeks ahead with dd1 and she was 5lb 13oz but born at 35 weeks- she would have probably only been 7-8lb full term tho. They kept telling me I wa going to be having a huge baby!! It was all fluid though.
This time I'm 1.5 weeks ahead but I never carry babies in a petite way- it must just be the way my body is. I don't agree with this measurement thing anyway as everyone has a different body shape and size how can we all fit this 1cm=1week box?
 
I measured 2-3 weeks ahead with my DS, I went most overdue with him, he was born at 42 weeks. My smallest LO measured 4 weeks behind and came at 41 weeks. I was told that having a bigger baby doesn't mean they will come earlier, and since you're only measuring 2 weeks ahead hopefully you won't end up going too early (although hopefully it will help you not to be left waiting past your due date :))
 
Yea certainly nothing major as bubs cud even out
I was 2-3 weeks behind with dd1 madi was 7lb 13 2 week overdue xx
 
I know...one can hope, right? Delivery at 38 weeks sounds lovely!
 
I measured a couple of weeks behind for a while during my second pregnancy and my son arrived in his due date at 9lb9. I'm just not convinced that the bump measurement is a good indicator of baby's size or when it'll arrive.
