I was measuring ahead at 28 weeks, I was 29cms. Been spot on since though. I hope she isn't going to be big and they're all going to be completely wrong..
Woah Jenny, that's a biggun! You're so tiny. How'd you manage that?
Tell me about it! I have no idea...I was only 7lbs. when I was born, but my husband was 4 weeks early and weighed 7lbs then...so he very welly could have been a big baby. It's been awful trying to carry this extra weight, I get the word on Monday whether they will be inducing me early or not because I have another scan to check her weight.
I know! My huband always jokes, "Well look at it this way, if she's big and you get an episiotmy, then I'll just have the doc stick a couple extra stiches in there to make you extra tight again."
I give him the all-out death stare when he says this.

I won't tell you that there's a stitch called the 'love knot' that docs sometimes take for this very reason when they are repairing a torn or cut perenium
Edit: It's not to make you 'extra tight' though... don't misunderstand...
I was 10lb but I was over 3 weeks late.
My OH was 5lb15oz 3 days late.
I think I would've been about 8lb on time.
So inbetween them two I get 7lb.
Lets hope!

I'm not even going to say that to him, because he will ask the doctor about it. Lol, thanks for the info though!

Yeah, I think that sounds about right. Plus from all your pictures I've seen, your bump just looks so petite. I think she will be just right, 7lbs!
