Is my baby growing big?

I had a growth scan a few days ago, and I’m just wondering if my baby is growing on the big side? I was 32+2 days at the time of the scan. Thank you

What did they say at the growth scan? X

My community midwife said he was growing perfect and where he should be, yet my consultant said he was on the big side so I’m confused! I’ve had 2 people say different things

Well you can see they are in the higher percentage but someone has to be, that's how they work. They aren't above it so not bigger than normal range
Did the hospital express any concern? Are you having growth scans for a reason?

The hospital just said he was on the bigger side and there sending me for an ultrasound growth scan instead of my community midwife measuring me with just the simply tape measure on stomach. It’s just panicked me now as I’m a first time mom so I don’t know much about the whole growth scans😩

That sound perfectly normal, the scan has confirmed the midwife's thought on it being a large baby but at present definitely still with the realms of normal just at the top end
