I’ve just had my 24 week appointment and the midwife didn’t measure my bump, just listened to baby’s heartbeat. Is this normal or have they forgotten?!

Ahhh ok thank you! Had thought it was 24 weeks. Will wait until then 😊

At my 25 week appointment they did measure bump. I think it depends on area x

I've just had my 24week appointment to and that's all she done with me to.

I had a 25 week appt and they said they won’t measure til next time!

I’m not getting mine measured until next week which will be 28 weeks… where I am in Scotland we don’t get an appt between 22 weeks and 28! Xx

I haven't had mine measured at all, I'm 26 weeks now. I am having growth scans though, I think this is because I'm plus sized to begin with so maybe measuring me wouldn't be accurate. I think 28 weeks is standard though so hopefully you'll get your first measurement then 🤞

I’m 27 weeks and a midwife hasn’t measured my bump yet xx

I had my 25 week midwife yesterday and she just did heartbeat, my blood pressure. She did mention about measuring baby at the next check when i’m 28 weeks.

They start measuring at 28 weeks!

Had mine measured at 25 week appt but think as people have suggested, might be down to area xxx
