At my 20 week scan, I noticed the report said my baby had a smaller femur and a larger head. All with in range as such as still on the chart, but I'm super worried and google hasn't helped.

I've got no further scans as the sonographer wasn't concerned it's only since I've looked at the report since coming home

Anyone else have similar or can reassure.. ill try and speak to my midwife but this may help in the meantime xxxx anxious mummy to be xxxx

Hi, midwife sonographer here. There’s absolutely nothing to be worried about. Babies, like the rest of us, come in all shapes and sizes. As long as the measurements and within the normal ranges there’s no need to be concerned at all.

My dd’s femurs were always below 3rd percentile and other measurements about 50th, she’s 2 now and absolutely fine she is just petite. Pregnant with my second and again small femurs, not quite as small as my dd but quite a big difference from other measurements. I get the worry, this time
round I’m much more relaxed but I spent a lot of time on Google my first pregnancy.
