Scan measurements

Jogo · Jun 28th, 2009, 07:21 AM

Just been looking through my notes from my 20 week scan and wondering if anyone understands the measurements?

My are:
HC: 175mm (head circumference)
FL: 31mm (don't know what this is)
Normal fetal anatomy
Presentation: Breech
Placenta: anterior - not low

It says that the HC and FL were 20w0d (I was 20+2).

Anyone understand what it all means?!

Xx

Hiya, I dont know anything about the measurements but I wouldn't worry about it being a couple of days different. I'm assuming that you were 20+2 as per your LMP?? you could have ovulated a couple of days later than you thought etc etc.

The breech position is fine as baby will turn and move a million times before you are due, the placenta also moves a little but I think that the main thing is that it isn't low and covering your cervix so from what little I know it all sounds good

FL: 31mm (don't know what this is)
that's the femur length.

Normal fetal anatomy
everything you would expect was there the right size and in the right place, kidneys, stomach, ect.

Presentation: Breech
baby's bum is down the bottom and head is up top

It says that the HC and FL were 20w0d (I was 20+2).
baby is a tiny, tiny bit little, could be your dates are out by a day or so, but at this stage they would not change it unless you were more than a week out.

So everything is looking good!

Er no, an anterior placenta is one that is on the front wall of the uterus, surely? (not a problem, just an alternative position)

Mine says anterior but clear of OS..means it goes along the front wall

Mini moo is measuring a week ahead of dates, but they didntn change my due date at all
