week by week pregnancy measurements

Hello All, We'll soon be introducing a new feature for our expecting moms. The Pregnancy, Week-by-Week application will allow you to read all about what's happening to your body and to your baby during any given week. It'll track where in your pregnancy you are and send you emails to let you know when you've started a new week as a reminder to read the new information for that week.

Like the previous poster said....it's medical babble....but having been pregnant 5 times and having had numerous ultrasounds....everything sounds just fine. 1. States that the baby is alive, looks normal and the heart is good. 2. Says the amniotic fluid is at a good level 3. There were no defects found 4. Just notes where the placenta is. 5.

My son was measuring small my hole pregnancy and was born at 37 week at only 4.8 pounds. But today he is 8 months old still small and doing great. So don't stress everything will be fine.

Also I cried of course I was so excited to find out what we were having! They do all the measurements first and at the end if you want to find out what your having that's when you find out...

You're 23 weeks pregnant and your doctor did a vaginal ultrasound? No, that isn't too normal. There's no need for a vaginal ultrasound at that point-- it's mostly used in early pregnancy when you can't see the baby abdominally. I would talk to them and see why they did it. Maybe it's standard practice?

then if the babys head is at 13 weeks 5 days then iam 13 weeks 5 days not 12 weeks 5 day thanks

Is Anybody Elses Week By Week Videos Acting Weird Lately ? Im In The 36 Weeks Stage ..

It's usually a in depth scan my taking measurements of baby and checking vital organs have developed etc :)

Head measurments, brain, arm and leg measurements, heart beat and how.many chambers, kidneys, spine measurements, mmm and sex!!

Completely normal. Just go by the due date they give you and not by measurements. My little guy has measured ahead and behind and so have both of my girls. I always stick to the first due date no matter what!

Tiger...I am not sure, she just was able to tell me??? I know other women have found out the weight here though. I read your post about waiting to find out what the sex is. My husband video taped the u/s and zoomed in and knew what it was easliy by looking at it even before she told us. The cord was in the way in the begining, but as soon as it moved we saw! Did you have to avoid looking?

ll probably make up for it later in the pregnancy I was small at first and by the time I was seven months I was huge and made up for the beganing

I had about 6 tubes of blood drawn last week for gyn I dont know if a tube was for that. What do they do at the screening appt?

I measured one week ahead by measuring tape when I was 19 weeks, I measured 3 weeks ahead when I was 23 weeks, and this week I measured 2 weeks ahead and I'm 27 weeks. My midwife said that we would keep an eye on it for my next few visits and go from there. My ultrasound measured him to be right on my previous EDD but that was when I was 18 weeks. I'm not worried about it but I kinda want to know if I should be expecting him a little early.

I am 29 weeks and sometimes when he move I get this sharp pain down there can somebody help me

Good luck at your scan everything will probably turn out just fine. Don't worry too much about the fundal measurements mine have been off the whole pregnancy. Weeks ahead and then weeks behind. In fact they are doing a growth ultrasound on the 9th just to check the baby because the fundal size is so off. I'm not worried she's been fine at every other ultrasound. She's been sitting very low from early on so I don't even see how it's possible for her to drop.

So everything went great with the measurements and the ultrasound in general. My boy weighed 11oz and the doc said that was a bit underweight for 21 weeks but all else with him looked normal. My placenta was inflamed so he put me on baby aspirin to hopefully fix that cuz the blood flow frombaby thru placenta wasn't normal,but blood flow to baby was great.

At 37 weeks when he gave me my papers to carry around with me around bring back to each appointment - or to the hospital if I went into labour in the meantime - I noticed that there were a couple of appointments later on in my pregnancies where I was measuring either a week behind or a week ahead of where I was in the pregnancy....and I was never told this was something to be concerned about. Both of my sons were born perfectly healthy. If you're worried, you should ask about it....

I have just had my 21 week scan and have been told that my baby has mild dilated renal pelvises (at 6mm vs the normal 5mm). Also on the Anomaly scan results I see that although within the 5th to 95th centile range the Biparietal Diameter is at 52 mm (so slightly more than the 50 mm for 21 weeks) and the Femur length is at 32.9mm (so slightly shorter than the 34mm for 21 weeks).

I did have one more after 20 weeks with all four of my kids to compare measurements from week 20 and see if baby is developing right

I've had 3 so far, my initial one at 10 weeks, anatomy at 20 weeks & i had one at 28 weeks for growth measurements & I'll have one next week again for growth measurements which I'll be 33 weeks then. It really depends on your doctor as well as your insurance.

I am new to this but i am 11 weeks pregnant and i have my 12 week ultrasound nest Wednesday and i am very nervous! I heard the heartbeat at 8 weeks but i am still very nervous..just need encouragement!
