36 weeks and No weight gain and fundal growth since 34 weeks

I just had my 36 week appointment and I hadn't gained any weight since my 34 week appointment and baby wasn't measuring bigger either. He said not to worry but is sending me for an growth ultrasound to be cautious. Has this happened to any other moms in their previous pregnancies? It's hard not to be worried!

I haven't gained anything since 15wks but my dr isn't concerned. He doesn't measure at all, just goes by ultrasound, and at 31+6 baby was in 83rd percentile. Hopefully it's something similar for you too. Good luck!

Sometimes the baby can be in a position where the fundal height isn't a very accurate measure of the baby's size or growth.

Was the heartrate good?
