I been measuring 3-4 cms bigger everytime I been for check up since about 22 wks. This is baby no 3 tho so might be bigger and also tummy muscles not what they used to be! Originally was going to get growth scan but getting section at 38+4 (2nd Nov!!!!) so they wont do one as said it doesnt matter.
I think if you get to about 34 weeks and still really big they may do a growth scan just to double check. Sometimes its not the sizr of the baby but they way they are lying or just alot of amniotic fluid.

I had this too. I measured about 2-3cm bigger from 30 weeks but by the time i got to 40 weeks i was measuring normal again. Midwife told me that i was probably measuring bigger as baby hadnt dropped and baby was in a funny position for a while. I wouldnt worry, if your midwife is concerned she will arrange another scan to check the baby's growth/size.
