Small fundal height

Midwife has requested a scan as the fundal height hasn't changed since my last appointment a week and a half ago. I've had one growth scan previously due to measuring smaller than expected compared to my previous measurements. Last growth scan baby seems to be tracking along similar to my 20 week scan in terms of percentile... If anything my waters were a bit under average but not significantly that they were concerned. Eager for the scan now, not sure why I keep measuring small, kind of hoping the baby is just tucked in well! I'm tall so maybe they just spread out rather than hanging out in a ball! If anything the last scan made them sound big (5lb2 at 33 weeks) anyone else with questionable bump measurements?

I had a scan at 30 weeks and they told me her abdominal circumference had dropped 40% from my last scan at 20 weeks and she was weighing 3lb 4oz I’ve just had another scan at 33 weeks and they told me she has grown and her stomach is growing and she is weighing 4lb 1 0z. But now they’re telling me her femur bone is on the smaller side. They’re monitoring me with scans every 2 weeks

I’ve had 3 growth scans now! First was due to fundal height measuring ahead (was a bit of extra fluid) and a second to check the fluid again (it was within the range). After my midwife appt/fundal measurement yesterday, I was sent for a scan for restricted growth as bump was measuring at 31 weeks. Turns out he’s actually on the bigger side and I’m now having another scan in 3 weeks for accelerated growth 😂 I’m very much taking the fundal measurements with a pinch of salt, his estimated weight at 34 weeks is 5lb4

Im 36 weeks & had a scan yesterday - baby girl is measuring on the 91st centile but her stomach is measuring 97th! They’ve suggested an induction and 38 weeks because of her being big & because I’m high risk xx

My midwife has only measured my bump once before my first growth scan and hasn't done since as there's no point with regular growth scans being booked. One always contradicts the other and just causes unnecessary stress x
