Fundal height measurement jump
The last 2 measurements have been at 45th centile and 55th centile but at 34 weeks jumped to 95th.
I’m going for a growth scan tomorrow. Midwife said it could be diabetes or too much amniotic fluid or just different people measuring differently. Anyone else had this?

My jumps have all been down, I’ve had 60% to 3% and 91% to 60%. Everytime it’s all been fine, it can be as simple as a different person measurement or baby’s position. My first scan though was because she was over 90%, but growth scan plotted as 31%, they will check the fluid, and if size has actually increased it could be diabetes. Either way you should have a consultation to discuss after then scan. But I would try not to stress yourself out over it as it could be nothing.
