measuring 1w4d behind @ 25w5d?

[Lilly12]

I had a 3d ultrasound today (baby was stubborn so we're going back next week), the lady did measure her though and said she's measuring a bit small at 24w1d ?
Her estimated weight is 1.7pound which is spot on ,I read around 25-26 weeks.

But at 24 weeks I had a midwife visit and she measured my uterus with tape and I was measuring 26cm.

So do I worry now?
Or is it just normal since all babies grow different?

thnx


btw at my 17 week scan baby measured fine and like 1 day off of my estimated due date according to my ovulation..

Anyone ?

It should be fine, the average range is plus or minus 2 weeks of your current. So at 25 weeks you can measure between 23-27weeks. Also the measuring of the uterus using a tape measure isn't very accurate, you'll find different midwifes measure it differently.

Scan's are more accurate for measuring/dating when baby is smaller..your more pg now a each baby is gaining fat at their own rate. I have seen your bump pics and you look fab, I am sure all is fine.

my baby was measuring small like 3 days behind at 20 week scan...instead of 20w 5 days she was measure 20w 3days....both my boys were always ahead of the mark and they were both born before 38 weeks...I just think I've got a petite little girl this time I'm sure you're baby is just fine...they'll keep a good eye on things and make sure every thing is fine...you're bump looks great

Thanks ladies.

Think I'll just stick to my first given EDD.
Since babies grow at different rates above 20 weeks.

My first was march 30th (according to my ovulation)
Second was April 1st (according to anatomy scan)
Third was April 10 (According to 3d lady)

I always say end of march/beginning of april anyways.
My midwife sticks with March 30th as well

im sure all is fine hun I dont have experience measuring small, only measuring larger you are a very tiny lady to begin with so maybe your just going to have a petite little one! either way id go with EDD according to ovulation!
