dif docs measure differently
posted 26th Jul
Have you ever had 2 dif docs measure your fundal height and have them do it differently? Cuz I had an appt on the 1st with my normal doc and I measured 32 which was right where it should be. Then on the 9th I had another appt with a dif doctor in the practice and he measured me at 35 which was big for my # of weeks and a big jump from the last appt which was only 8 days before. Then I had an appt yesterday (which would be two weeks later) w/my normal doc and I measured 35 again. So should I be scared that I didn't grow in 2 weeks? I also didn't gain at all during this 2 wk period which is why I am scared. But 35 would be the "right" measurement for my last appt since I will be 35 weeks tomorrow. I am stressin now

Maybe it was the position of the baby? I dunno, I am curious to see what other ppl say b/c I had kind of the same thing happen this last appt.

I do think that diff. docs do measure differently. Where I have to go there are like 4 or 5 docs and week to week the fundal height can be the same or very different. If your doc didn't seem to concerned I would imagine everything to be OK.
