Fundal Height measuring big ?

[babymoma89]

Does anyone have any experience with their Fundal height measuring ahead of schedule ? Just had my 30 week check up and they are telling me I'm measuring at 35 weeks !! I've been measuring ahead my last few appointments and have a growth scan scheduled but was just curious if anyone else out there went through something similar?

I did measure 2 weeks over with my eldest. My fundal height from around 30 weeks was always 2 weeks over. Had to have a growth scan and they said he was only gonna be 7 and. Half lbs but he was 8lb 15oz so very big. Esp for me I’m tiny.

my smallest was 5lb 7oz and funny enough with her my fundal height measured 2 weeks behind.

Prob just cooking a good size baby hon. Are they gonna do a scan or anything? I’ve heard but please quote me on this. But I heard that if measuring more than 2 week’s ahead then they may induce around 38:39 weeks.
I don’t know how true that is tho.
Have they tested for gestational diabetes or they gonna do more scans or anything?

I have been tested for Gestational diabetes 3 times now and have been clear . They did a growth scan and Little bean is in fact a big baby he should only be about 3 lbs but measuring at 5lb and in the 98th percentile. Im waiting for my doctors office to call me to go over next step. If he continues at this pattern he'll be 9lbs or over by end of June well before my due date

I was induced 2 weeks early as my baby was measuring on the 97th centile ! So would have been around 9lb . DS1 came out at an unexpected 9lb8oz 6 days over to we took precautions this time . DS2 was born on Monday weighing 8lb7oz and still managed to get lodged on the way out ! Just needed a slight nudge and he thankfully came out

You will probably need regularly growth scans and also maybe discuss induction / c-section earlier ! Good luck it will work out ! Xx

I'm hoping for an early induction. My first born was 10lbs and 21.5 inches long and she was late so luckily my doctors been watching me closely. Hopefully I won't make it full term because I already feel like a house at this point

That's what I'm hoping my body is already so exhausted and I've been battling severe anemia this pregnancy.

I will keep everything crossed Love. With my biggest I felt I wasn’t listened too. By 27 weeks I looked 40 weeks. I was absolutely massive and at 35 weeks I was so done. I could barley walk and was in agony. I begged them to induce me but they kept refusing. My FH always measured 2 weeks ahead but growth scans was making them think he was just gonna be my normol 7lb baby but I new he was big.
I went 2 weeks over due and where he was 8lb 15oz and I’m tiny. Like I have no hips I hate my figure lol. I look like a boy with long hair ans boobs lol. Anyway he got very stuck and they had to use forceps and it was a very traumatic birth. He was born not breathing because he got so stuck.

when I fell pregnant after him they did agree to induce me at 40 weeks on my due date. but I went into labour on my own the day b4 but thankfully he was only 7lb 11oz but mine and my dh first baby. My biggest was with my ex so we shall blame him lol.

Please keep us posted love. I have to have things to read while I’m ttc and waiting for my rainbow to happen.
You got this love

You wouldn’t believe my biggest was that big looking at him now. He’s 16 In 2 weeks and he’s all skinny and gangly. Not that tall either but talller than me now but I’m only 5ft 4 lol.
