    Hi Mumofgirls
    Ultrasounds at 35 weeks are very inaccurate, they can be out by as much as 2 weeks or more. Also by their own recommendations they should not be guessing the weight. Their policy on this states that there is no way of getting an accurate weight measurement by using ultrasound.

    AFI = amniotic fluid index
    The amount of fluid surrounding your baby normal is 5 – 25
    Doppler flow studies looks at the blood flow through your baby’s body
    BPP score checks the heart beat, breathing movements, baby’s muscle tone and your baby’s movements 8/8 is normal ( should be above 5)
    Stick with your original dates.
