CRL ~ Is My Baby Just Big?

[MamaK]

Hi all!

I'll try to keep this brief..

I had my NT ultrasound at 13w4d. During the scan, the sonographer said that my baby was "too big" to fit into the screening guidelines, (cut off point is 84mm). My babies CRL was 86mm (8.6cm) and she said this fit with a gestation of 13w5d. I didn't think this was here nor there, 1 day doesn't make a difference right? So, because of this, my babies nuchal measurement was not done. I now have to have 2nd trimester screening, not that that bothers me.

What I am wondering however, is if my baby is going to be big? After doing some extensive 'googling' it seems that 86mm is an average CRL for a 14-15wk baby. I did not have this screening done with DS so I have no idea if this is normal for me!
DS was a nice 3.2kg at birth, but since this is a differenct paternity I know that this baby may be different. I am a little person, and am hoping for another natural childbirth, and I am concerned that maybe this baby is going to be too big for me.

I know it might sound silly and paranoid, but I am guess I am just looking for some reassurance that other women have had a similar CRL for their bubs and everything has turned out just fine.

Thanks for reading my paranoid ramblings!

I hope everyone is enjoying a happy and healthy pregnancy!!!!
