I'm confused....my doctor said I'm measuring a week ahead of what I am......based off the belly measure thing......can anyone help me understand this? why would I measure further along? second pregnancy..
thanks ladies!! My doctor didn't explain that when I asked. he just smiled and said it was fine. lol.
My midwife said she wouldn't be concerned unless there was like a three week discrepancy. No worries!
they measure your uterus..
which mean it could Possibly be baby but most likely means you have a lot of amniotic fluid.
It's kinda like the baby's chart at the doctor how they want them to be on a certain scale based on how most babies grow... Same with the measuring and sometimes if baby is bigger or even if they have moved it can make you seem larger
Could be extra fluid as well that's making you measure larger , happened to me at the end of my first pregnancy :) if they are concerned they will let you know about it !
