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.

I had this constantly with my first and just had one again with my second. Different midwives have slightly different techniques so their measurements can look like baby is growing too fast or too slow when it’s not. Try not to worry!

Don’t worry! I’m 33+6. Had midwife appointment yesterday where bump was saying baby would be 90th centile.. had my growth scan and hes stayed exactly where he should be on 50th!

Hi, I was in similar position. The fungal height was little small. I was told all is well as the baby movement and heartbeats were ok. I went for the scan just to be reassured.
All was well. In my case, it was due to my height.
Dont worry, all will be well.

Fundal measurements are known to be quite inaccurate; chances are baby has changed position and that’s affected it 🤞

Isn’t worth the paper it’s written on if it’s been measured by someone else

Should my bump be getting measured now? I’m 32 weeks pregnant and haven’t yet been done?

I had this so much in my first pregnancy. One week bump measuring small so got a scan. 2 weeks later bump measuring big. Needed another scan. I really wouldn’t be worried. Nice to get to see baby again on US though!

I had this recently! Nothing to worry about . Sometimes it’s just that the measurements are off but they wanna double check baby is growing away! It’ll be up & down with measurements sometimes too . They said my first was huge & she wasn’t when she came . Now this one they reckon she was small & then now she’s going up on the chart . Try to not worry too much! If concerned though defo tell them x
Has anyone else paid for a scan and not been able to see baby’s face? My partner feels like it was a waste of money I see where he’s coming from but I’m just glad I got to hear baby’s heart beat and seeing the baby moving. What would you do?
