20 week scan results

So I had my 20 week scan yesterday. I was told everything seemed ok and they gave me a print out of the numbers and off I went on my merry way.
But when I got home I was concerned. Baby 1 appears to have quite short femur and arm measurements compared to the rest. Baby 2 has short femur measuremt too.
I’ll post a photo of the results for baby 1

Any one any idea if it’s normal or possibility of something like dwarfism?

Your measurements are fine, mine were similar at 20 weeks, my babys femur was on the low end of that scale but caught up at my growth scans. If it's not within that measurement scale they would have told you if certain parts were measuring low or high. Nothing to worry about

Thank you @AlviesMam that’s really reassuring to know 🙂

They would certainly have talked to you if they thought there was a condition or concern. Congratulations!

@Undersnatch thank you. They did say the legs were small but at the time I just made a joke as my hubby is tall but has shorter legs in comparison. It was only later I thought it could be more than that as they didn’t seem proportionate.
