How To Ascertain That My Baby S Measurement Is Fine?
Hello, I am just concerned about my baby s fetal biometry. At my 19w u/s the measurments were BPD=4.52cm, HC=16,08cm, AC=14,23cm, FL=3,18 cm. The FL/BPD ratio was 70%, which is lower then the normal range (71-87%). EFW 305g. I had an u/s at 22w2d the measurment were BPD=54,4cm, FL= 41,4 cm, AC=17,3 cm. EFW= 501g. I need to know are my baby s measurments allright? I m concerned about FL/BPD? Do I need to be? Thanks, Mary

hi
i have gone through your report.Dont worry your baby's growth is with in normal range.Dont worry by seeing slight variation of measurements.BPD is affected by shape of head in fetus and thus FL/BPD ratio.so dont think much of this.have good diet.Have regular checkups.monitor for adequate growth of fetus.keep an eye on your BP.take care
