Bump Measurement

At my 25 week she told me she would do it at my 28/29 week appointment she just listened to baby’s heart and took a wee sample then she told me I would be getting my bloods done next time too

Yes I had mine done at 24 weeks and I mine was 25cm which was bang on 50th percentile. I had also tried to measure at home and I measured mine much longer, because it’s actually to do with the soft parts of your bump and not the whole bump, if that makes sense.

It’s not just measuring the bump so I wouldn’t try and measure at home. It’s measuring the fundal height which is from the top of your uterus to your pubic bone

I'm 25+5 and the fundal height is 28 cm now I'm not sure what that actually means.

I had my appointment at 25 weeks, 3 days and they said I measured 26cm so about 26 weeks. Personally I feel like my bump seems much bigger than friends at this stage but I guess around average!

What kind of numbers are you getting?

At 24+4 mine measured at 25cm x

Fundal height measurement can be quite inaccurate tbh, as each midwife will have their own approach. I was used by student midwives in hospital during my last pregnancy and all their measurements were different depending on where they started/ended from. I think unless if you have the same midwife all the way through who does all the measurements, it's hard to compare
