yes at my 21 week scan babies abdominal circumference was 175mm which was larger than all my other measurements (fetal weight estimated was 455g) which i think measured more like 22 weeks, whilst all my other measurements were consistent with the 3 other scans id had previously - so it looks like my baby may be a fatty. However all my fundal height is consistent to menstrual age so maybe she had a growth spurt on the belly - midwife doesnt seem to think there is a problem. I dont look overly massive. yes at my 21 week scan babies abdominal circumference was 175mm which was larger than all my other measurements (fetal weight estimated was 455g) which i think measured more like 22 weeks, whilst all my other measurements were consistent with the 3 other scans id had previously - so it looks like my baby may be a fatty.
