Worried and Confused- PLEASE HELP

Hello,
I am pregnant for the first time and am really excited about it. However, certain discrepancies in my Ultra Sound Scan has really left me worried. I got two scans done in less than a weeks time as we relocated to a new city and the doctor in the new city wanted to re confirm the scan results from my old city (IN TRANSIT) Before that none of my scan reports had any discrepancies. The details are as follows:

As per Old  City USG:

LMP : 14/08/09


Fetal measurements at 33 Weeks 1 day are as follows

BPD - 93.6mm corresponding to 38w0d
HC- 333 mm corresponding to 38w0d
AC- 345mm corresponding to 38w3d
FL- 65mm corresponding to 33w5d
Humerus-58 mm corresponding to 33w6d
OFD:114 cms
Estimated Fetal weight : 3169gms (+/- 193 gms)

EDD as per  LMP: 21 May 2010; USG 29 April 2010
EGA as per LMP: 33w1d; USG 36w 2d
Amniotic Fluid : AFI-16 Mild polyhydramnios


AS PER NEW CITY

BPD - 91 mm corresponding to 37w0d
HC-  328 mm corresponding to 37w2d
AC- 322 mm corresponding to 36w4d
FL-65 mm corresponding to 33w5d
Humerus: Not measured
OFD : Not measured
Estimated Fetal weight : 2756 gms (+/- 229 gms)

EGA as per LMP: 33w5d; USG 36 Wks
Amniotic Fluid : AFI-18 polyhydramnios


I am sort of really worried about these differences within a very short span of time... at both places we were told that its going to be a big baby... but the doctor here in the new city added -short limbs?? I am worried as if the FL corresponds to the actual number of weeks then how is it that limbs are short? and how come it is a big baby & short limbs both.... would it pose any danger to my baby... I am so confused... all that the new doctor said was lets wait and watch...


PLEASE HELP

Thanks for replying...

Yes I did show the new doctor the earlier reports and based on that(to be precise the last one) they asked me to go for another scan...she had also mentioned certain tests like GTT etc... which I have done and shall show it to her on my next appointment this Saturday...  hoping for something good and  trying not to think much and convince myself that I should not worry and keep faith in almighty that every thing will be fine...

That's odd....have you given the results of your previous scan to your new doctor? I would just keep asking until you get a good answer..."wait and see" doesn't really say much.
