Hi all,
I saw my mw today and she seemed a bit concernced. Last time I saw her, at 32 weeks, my fundal height was spot on at 32cm's. Now, at 37 weeks, I'm only just at 33 cms. I don't feel like I've gotten much bigger or rounder over the last 4 weeks, I was just saying to dh the other day I feel like I've stopped growing and am just dropping lower and lower instead.
Mw says baby is 2/5 engaged, but that's not enough to account for losing 4cm's of fundal height. I have an u/s on Monday. i'm resisting the urge to Google I am a bit owrried, only because my mw is worried and she's actually sending me for an u/s when she is generally very non-interventialionist...
So, what could be going on here....? Should i brace myself...?
hun id say that bubs has just moved on down, heading towards the exit i wouldnt worry at all!!
FWIW i always measured way behind, middy was never concerned! dont google
Dont worry just sounds like bubs is getting ready.
If it helps Im only measuring at 23 weeks and I should be huge. All is well Im just carrying more to the back
the exact same thing happened to me and i was rushed in for an ultrasound. The sonographer told me that all measurememts were fine except her legs werent measuring' right''. Of course i was freaked out and went on the net which told me a million things that could be wrong. doctor even told me when i asked if baby could have dwarfism that he couldnt say. I was in pieces for days until i got the formal results which measursed aloy better and different again! my m/w est that baby would be 4.5 kg bou turned out 3.2! so never can tell. i was always out with fundal measures at the end and yes, my little one came out just fine. so please dont go looking on the net and try and chill baby will be fine.
Fundal Height 4cm's too low- what could that be?
