Baby measurements

At my 20 week scan (well I was 19 weeks 4 days) my baby had these measurements FL: 33.3mm HC: 160.4mm AC 137.9mm The sonographer was pretty rubbish and never said if this was okay/ normal so I don't really know what these measurements even mean. Can someone help me understand this?

Fl is fetal length, hc is head circumference ac is the size of their tummy xxx

@Amber are those measurements okay then? Went people are talking about centile, what does this mean? 😂 feel clueless

@Amber is FL not femur length? The measurements seem odd otherwise x

Yes sorry ahah typo xx

@Megan have you tried Google, i know there are calculators where you can type in tour measurements and it puts it on a graph? It's different for everyone's baby depending on exact date of gestation and they arnt always that accurate xx

@Amber it’s given me 18.5 centile xx

@Megan excellent that's good for only 20 weeks xx

@Megan what calculator did you use please? I would like to do this too 😀

@Natalie https://srhr.org/fetalgrowthcalculator/#/

@Megan fab thanks! What does it mean once you do it lol 😆 it says he is 56th percentile Oh I googled it.. he is basically bang on the middle or slightly above x

@Natalie how many weeks are you? She was measuring 18.5 at just over 19 weeks but don’t even know what it means 😂

@Megan I was 20 weeks exactly, now 23 x

@Megan what was the 18.5? X

That's what I got when I put my measurements in

Maybe I’ve done it wrong 😂

@Megan did you put in a number for all the different measurements you have? That's what I did x

Aww thank you. I don’t know if that’s normal for a girl though 😂😂

@Megan just means she’s on the smaller side for now but it’s still early days she will have plenty of time left to put weight on! My son was just above the 10th centile and was 6lb 10.5oz for reference x

Thanks so much 🥰
