29 weeks baby's tummy measuring a week ahead

Hi everyone,

I'm 29+2 and I went to a private scan this evening as a treat for my husband's birthday. She did the baby's head, tummy and leg measurements, the head and legs were measuring where they should be, however the tummy was measuring 30+3. I was quite shocked because I had a growth scan at hospital only 2 weeks ago and everything was measuring exactly where it should be.
Has anyone else had experience of the baby's tummy measuring a week ahead? I'm probably worrying about nothing, I was just quite shocked!
Thank you 💙

DD's abdomen circumference measured literally off the scale from about 34 weeks onwards. It was past the 100th percentile in all scans. The doctors weren't concerned at all, she was born weighing 9lb 11oz and perfectly fine!
