Fundemental height...measuring big!

I had a OB appointment today and my baby boys heart beat was 160. Im 24 weeks and 4 days (almost 24 weeks and 5 days) but im measuring 30. They scheduled me another ultrasound for growth bigger than due date for Monday. I told them my husband was 9 pounds 8 oz when he was born and they said that could have something to do with it. The doctor said not to be concerned. Have any of you mamas measured that big before?

Im 25 week's and six days and my baby shows to weigh 2.7lbs I feel as that's a lot for how far a long I am.  I'm having a boy and MY baby's father weighed 9 lbs and 6oz so I have a pretty good feeling my baby will be big too.

Yeah when i told my aunt who is my obgyn that my husband was 9 lbs 8 oz when he was born she acted like that was probably why. She said that they normally take after the daddy.

I always measure big. Had my 28wk check up today and measured 30wks. My first child was 9lb 7oz. My husband was over 10. Babies grow at different rates, so I wouldn't be to concerned.
