    HI Dianna - Fundal height is b y no means an exact science, as you said, 2 different people can get different measurements depending on where they measure from and to. The position of bub can definately influence the measurement too so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

    I've always measured much bigger - like 2-3 cms bigger with both pregnancies - told oh this one will be a big size and Izzy was 8lB 13oz but she was 11 days late! So you just never know! HtH!

    Yep Dianna I too measured differently when different people did it. I found some didn't even measure from the pubic bone (as normal) so got lower measurements. I have always been big too and this baby is no exception : S

    Don't worry about it too much. It evens out in the end
