measuring ahead
Anyone else measuring ahead?
I went 9 days late with my big baby ? and they won't induce me
@jenny I wouldn't worry too much. Part of the reason they don't change the due date after the initial scan is because babies come in all different sizes especially if we as parents happen to be large or small ourselves. You may have a 5 pound baby where as I may end up with a 8 pound or larger baby since I am so ahead.
Fundal height, yes. Ultrasound, no. But they think this one will be another big one... why, I have no clue! I suspect because it's a new OB office, so they are going off my oldest's weight. He was 10lbs 6oz! But then it went...
DD#1 7lbs 3oz
DS#2 8lbs 3oz
So really I think it's a toss up for DD#2 lol.
I've been measuring ahead all my pregnancy (another big baby too lol) but my next appointment is Tuesday so I'm curious to see what she says. Plus my weight gain has been out of control which really sucks because that's only going to contribute to a big baby ? let's home my glucose test passes too on Tuesday!
@shia my midwife says the same thing, but because my son was 10lb 3oz...they're thinking odds are she'll follow suit
Measuring ahead in uterus height
Doesn't change the due date. For me their thinking another big baby
What does it mean when a baby is measuring a week ahead?
Does measuring ahead mean im further along or baby is just big?
Dr said I am measuring 2 weeks ahead..
So for mommies that have had babies already when you measured ahead did they induce you? Since I'm measuring 4 weeks ahead I was wondering if I'd be induced.
Just had my midwife appointment, I'm measuring 4 wks ahead 😱😱😱.....booked in for a stretch and sweep on Friday.




Anatomy scan was great!! Seven is measuring 2 days ahead.. And he's not shy.lol.💙👣💙
The most accurate time to predict due date is 8-12 weeks, so they almost never change it after that. I always measure two weeks ahead but had a small baby past my due date, so I don't put much stock in it
