Well good to know! Thanks ladies, i really get more worried when my family compares me to my cousin whom is a month behind me and she.looks like she is ready to deliver lol...i guess as long as the movement is there I shouldn't worry too much!

I go in for my growth scan on Tuesday my daughter was full term and weighed 4 lbs 11ozs. They are thinking my son will be tiny too. I am 27 weeks and still able to sleep on my stomach if that tells you anything.

1cm I nothing to worry about! Im 37 weeks and measuring 34 and have always measured 3-4cm behind! Fundal measurements are not an accurate way of measuring baby, I measured small with my other 2 pregnancy's and they were born over 7lb. If they were worried they would send you for a scan!
