What length should the baby be at 12 weeks?
Hi Ladies,
I had my '12' week scan on Tuesday all was great which is such a big relief BUT the baby measured 13cm and i thought at 12 weeks around 6cm was normal so am i further along than 12 weeks?
Thank You for you helping me by answering my question

Did they actually say you're only 12 weeks? I could understand your mw saying this as they do go by your LMP, but I can't understand the sonographer saying it as length is how they date it accurately - the sonographer has no idea how far along you are just by looking, but takes the measurements and looks across the grid to find the corresponding date.
My mw told me that the sonographer's EDD is only used if the mw's EDD is out by a week or more - which by the sound of things, yours should be!

When I went for my ultrasound they told me that i was 11 weeks and 4 days almost 12 weeks and my baby was measured 7.7cm. Well two weeks late i went back to my doctor for a check up she pressed on my stomach and told me i was 16 weeks after 2 weeks. and that my due date is dec 28 the same as the lady told me that did my ultrasound. now how stupid is that and my due date is the same.
i had a mesdurement at 12 weeks 3 days and was told the baby is 16cms frm head to bum but from the information i see online the baby at 13 weeks should be between 5 and 9 cms and now im confused at to if my dates are correct ive had to scans one at 8 weeks and one at 12 weeks 3 day and both by different hospitals and they both say my due date is 5th april but surely 16cms at 12 weeks is to big confused.com.
I had my 13wk scan and baby was measuring 15cm (10.6cm from crown to bum) .
My baby measured 6.1cm at 12 weeks and 3 days x
I was 11 weeks 2 days with first measuring 13cm long and 12 weeks 1 day with second measuring 19cm long.
