Scan results?

Hi
I had my 16 week scan today and thought everything was fine, but getting home and looking at the info/ charts some of my measurement are way outside the normal range? In particular the femur length is really big! Way outside of the normal range on the chart. They didn’t mention anything during my scan and I’m so annoyed I didn’t look at the charts at the time and ask. Had anyone else experienced this! Could it be wrong ?

usually all the measurements don't align perfectly, I would imagine you would have been told or asked to talk to someone if there was a concern. It's not unusual for the femur length to be more advanced in terms of measurement. It was the same on my previous charts and everything was fine. You should give your midwife a ring and discuss your concerns.

If they was concerned they would have mentioned it at the scan. Maybe ask about it at your next midwife appointment so you have more understanding, but if there was an issue you'd already know
