Big baby Smile I'm the opposite in measuring 3.5 weeks behind and have my scan soon too (I'm 34 weeks) might not be a big baby tho might just be the way he/she is positioned or could be long ??

Hopefully it is just positioning. If I carry on measuring big will they induce me? And if so will I be able to have the lovely calm water birth I long for??
Good luck with your scan x

Hello, same happened to me in my first pregnancy. I measured big due to excessive fluid. Extra scans showed no probs and he was just a big baby. Waters broke on due date but they just kept an extra eye on me.

I measured off the top of the chart all the way through both pregnancies and no one paid a blind bit of notice. Dcs were 9lb15 and 10lb6.. They have promised to keep an eye this time Hmm
