Hi all,

I was just wondering if anyone has had any experience of this?

I am 32+6 and measuring 2.5 weeks bigger than my dates, I have 1ds 2yo who was only 7lb1 and came exactly on his due date, also baby is IVF so am certain of dates!

Can anyone shed any light on this?

TIA

Just thought those dates are ultrasound dates by IVF dates I would be only 31+6 but it was ds's ultrasound date he came on so have been going by them!

Don't read too much in to it, it is all subjective. I had growth scans with both mine as mw thought they were small. DD was 6lb10, ds was 8lb10!

I kept being told that Ds1 was due in March the 14th, and that he would be a tiny baby - all because of the scan results.
He was induced at what they said was 42 weeks, and weighed 8lb,6oz. However, by my dates he should have been born on the 12 th Ap[ril, and what weight would he have been by then

I don't think it really means alot tbh.
I measured 4 weeks bigger with DD2 for about 6 weeks - turned out she lying in a funny position to make my tummy measure bigger, once she moved was fine

DD1 was 8lb 9 and DD2 was 8lb 13

Thanks for your replies ,
I don't normally pay much attention but I've been having period crampy type feelings last couple of days (didn't have anything with ds until i went into labour 24hrs before he arrived!) and was wondering if I should be getting ready!
