Measuring big

what does it mean when the dr says u are measuring bigger than what u supposed to be...I'm asking this because technically I am 32 weeks but at my last dr appointment they said that my stomach is measuring 35 36 cm...so next week I have to have another ultrasound to check...so is this something to worry about

Could also mean you have extra amniotic fluid.

At 32 weeks I was measuring at 35 weeks. My doctor said I could be farther along then I thought or my baby could just be big. My doctor wasn't worried at all. She is actually excited to see how big she is at my ultrasound next week.
