Hi Ladies,so i am currently 31 weeks pregnant and the dr has scheduled me a 32 week growth scan. Now i didnt have this with my first and i have changed DR, so i am wondering if this is normal or if she suspects there is something wrong and wants to check before she tellsme.
My first DD was 4kg and at my 20 wk scan with this baby the sonographer did say i was measuring big and i have tried to measure the fundus height myself but am not sure i am doing it right but if i am so i am measuring very big. Funny though, all my friend skeep saying how small my bump is although i have already put on 14KG. Anyone shed some ligh?

i have also recently changed my doc and is in 32 week of pregnancy. no ultrasounds now except for 1 later which i am actually happy about.. with the previous doc every time i use to go there was a scan even if i have to go in just a space of 10 days for something or the other. <em>edited by manubhadauria on 05/03/2012</em>

Always, standard for me! Usually the doctor does it with every visit ...

I had a growth scan with my first as I had borderline gestational diabetes/impaired glucose tolerance, so my doctor wanted to check he wasn't getting too huge.

i think the best thing would be to give her a call and ask her flat out if there is anything concerning or if this is a routine thing. that way you can stop wondering. it could be that she wants to estimate the birthweight/ size of the baby as it is not that long until delivery.
