36 weeks pregnant but only measuring 34 weeks

[Pokus]

Has anyone else had this? Ive been measuring spot on up until now and its really worrying me. Had a growth scan at 32 weeks and all was fine then

At this time the numbers are usually averages and the differences are larger later in pregnancy. Some people are taller or shorter and usually it is down to genetics or even baby position (like if the baby has decided to hide a foot). The most important things are the milestones in organ development at this time so there shouldn't be anything to worry about. Just remember baby birth weight range is very high and your baby is becoming a proper individual. For more assurance it may be worth talking to your midwife or a helpline or looking for statistics on size but I really wouldn't worry

I was just hte same, at 32 weeks I was measuring 29cm. By 34 weeks I was back on track. I think he was just saving himself up for a growth spurt!
