baby measuring small

I'm 31 weeks pregnant today, went to the midwife and she said my measurements are short and I'm going down the chart. What does it mean?I'm measuring 30 cms at 31 weeks pregnant is that normal or not?

Your fundal height should be the equivalent in cm to your weeks of pregnancy, so if your 31 wks you should be 31 cm however they allow a 2 cm variance so even if your 31 wks it's ok to be as small as 29 cm or as big as 32 cm before there is any need to be concerned :)

In other words you're fine :)

I went to the doctor yesterday and I'm 31 weeks and they said I was measuring 39 weeks also...they said that it's fine as long as it's not 3 over or 3 under what your supposedly week is...so I'm not too worries she might not be a huge baby :)
