Sudden increase in growth?

Hi everyone,

I had my 31 week midwife appointment today (31 +6) and when she measured my bump it had jumped 5cm since my last measurement 2 weeks ago. I’ve gone from being consistently around the 20th percentile in my previous measurements to going off the scale above the 97th!

I didn’t ask at the time as I didn’t realise the difference until I saw my growth chart after the appointment.

Has this happened to anyone else? It’s so hard to get an appointment at my hospital that I don’t even have my next one scheduled, and probably won’t see anyone again for 3 weeks. Im worried something might be wrong making him grow too fast or my fluid level too high?

Thanks in advance!
