    don't forget hun, they need to have smaller and larger babies to make up the 'average' baby.
    FWIW DS measured nearly 38 weeks at my 34 weeks scan...I was scared I was growing a monster.....fairly inaccurate in late stages.

    No need to worry! Imagine if we were all measured to determine our age. I would be about 10 years old!! lol. Babies, like adults come in all shapes and sizes. They're not all identical and measure the same. Bubs is a week behind the 'average' not a week behind what she's supposed to be itms. She growing just how she's meant to

    In a way atleast im glad shes not a monster (although she feels like she is), i dont think i could push out a 10 pound baby! LOL
