Measuring 33 weeks at 29 weeks pregnant - is this a problem ?

[BabiesEverywhere]

My midwife on hearing that the antibodies issue is no longer an issue with my pregnancy.

Paused for breath and then said I should do a glucose test (which I passed last pregnancy and had no family diabeates history etc) so I said unless there was a reason I would rather not.

Then I was told I was measuring 33 weeks at 29 weeks and I have to come back soonish for another measure and if I am still 'too big' I should go to the hospital for another scan, as my baby might be too big.

I know they have to do what they think is right but from this side I really feel they are looking for problems that aren't there

Well it's good to hear I'm not the only one... GTT this thursday joy and delights but my lovely mummy's coming with me to natter so the time flies by.

Keep us posted with how everyone's getting on with our giant bellies/ babies. Mine stopped me from going on the dodgems at my SIL's wedding this weekend but managed to have a massive boogie instead.

BIG hugs to all

Not getting on well with HUGE belly ....very uncomfortable and feeling very weepy.....

minipinkscottish, Sorry to hear your feeling weepy and uncomfortable. Have you considered buying a support belt ? I have one and it really helps.

Thanks babieseverywhere - I'll look into that

Well I'm not diabetic and from my scan my baby's exactly on the 50th centile - i.e. bang on average. So all that stress for nothing.... Big relief but makes you realise quite how inaccurate fundal heights are...

Hope all you other ladies are doing well and if you're still waiting for scans etc try not to worry!

I have been so stressed since yseterday when i was told that i was measuring 33 weeks instead of 29 but after reading all your posts i feel a little better. i too dont have diabetes and have to go back to hospital on monday. Fingers crossed.
