29 week fundal height

I had my 29-week appointment today, and the midwife measured my fundal height at around 27 cm—the same as my 26-week measurement. However, I had a scan just last week, and the sonographer was confident that my baby is growing perfectly. I have no idea how he could have grown and then “shrunk” in such a short time! I genuinely believe the midwife measured incorrectly because I checked myself twice with a tape measure and got 30 cm. Has anyone else experienced this?🤦🏾‍♀️

I have even had growth scans come back saying he haddnt grown in 4 weeks when he had, it’s definitely human error sometimes! 🫣

honestly the little panic you have just to find out it’s nowt🤣😭. It’s like they want me to have high blood pressure

Honestly I don’t trust the fundal measurements anymore. My bump was measured to be under the 10th percentile and then scan came back with baby being 93rd percentile. A HUGE margin of error. Pointless to measure the bump I think 😅

My fundal measurement la at 24+3 weeks was showing I was 7 weeks ahead , so I was showing the size of 31 weeks,i went for a scan on the Friday the day I turned 25 weeks and they said I just carry big that he was measuring spot on 25 weeks x

i am facing the same issue - how did your scan go?

The Scan went well, my baby was measuring on target. I just say with bump measurements take them with a pinch a salt as sometimes it down to them measuring wrong

Oh my God, oh my God I hope this is not true!!!! I’m kind of scared

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

normal or infected?

5 weeks post c section , i went at the beginning of the week as my wound had opened completely different area to what’s leaking. was told it didn’t look infected. anyone know if this is normal coming off it, it’s only a little amount at a time

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you
