I am currently at 36 weeks and measured 30 weeks at my appointment.. My doctor is not concerned because he knows the baby is growing. At my 34 week appointment, I measured 27 weeks and 2 weeks later measured 30 so he knows the baby has grown. He didn`t seem too concerned. So I wouldn`t worry at all- 3 cm isn`t anything to be worried about.

I always measured small at the end of my pregnacies. My smallest baby was 6`11` and largest was 8`5` so it turned out ok with all of them.

You measure less towards the end as the baby drops down... so takes up less space. x

i always measured 2 wks behind with my daugher but there are some things that happen with a sudden lag, did you drop? if the baby has dropped it will cause a smaller measurement. you may be leaking fluid and being 38 wks you are fine to deliver... a growth scan wont hurt but i bet all is fine!

i was measuring small my whole pregnancy. My last dating scan said that the baby dropped under the 10% in size so i had to be induced at 37 weeks because they thought I had IUGR. They said he would be under 5lbs. LOL- But he was born a heathly 7lbs 2oz, and that was with being 3 weeks early. I wouldn`t worry. Everything is done by averages, you are prob just on the smaller side like me.

oh yay, thanks, that makes me feel abit better, everyone always telling me how small i am, it starts getting on ya nerves after awhile!!!

I did. I measured right on up until 36 weeks when I started measuring at 35 weeks. My last check at 40 weeks I was still measuring at 35. My little boy was just born and was a normal size.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
