i had my first consultant apoint yest morn and bp an urine ok but i noticed mw had put an up arrow an gest age in the fundus/uterus heitght section. Wht does it mean if uterus is measuring bigger than gestational age. I was 14 +3 even though there sayin 14+5 (due dec 13th).

Nothing. Fundal height is an average, and by thus some women will measure higher or lower than where they "should" be. I measure 2 weeks ahead of what I am, its not a concern.

At 7+3 my doctor thought my uterus was measuring 11 weeks, which prompted an ultrasound because he couldn't find baby on doppler. Sometimes you just measure a little bigger or smaller.
