25 1/2 Weeks Pregnant And Baby's Head Measuring Too Small? Posted: 02-02-06 14:45pm
Hi I am 25 1/2 weeks pregnanat and I went
to the doctors on monday and the doctor
measured the babys head and he said that
the baby's head was measuring a little
smaller than the body so he sent me over
to see a specialist and the specialist
said that the head is measuring 24 weeks
and the body is measuring 25 1/2 weeks.
The specialist said that the head is still
in the normal range and it's really
nothing to worry about ( they say that
head might just be a narrow head) but
this is my second pregnancy and I did not
have this problem with my first....
Has anyone been thought this or know of
anyone who has and what was their
outcome???
I will get another ultrasound in 5 weeks
so they could see if the baby's head is
growing right...

If the specialist said that everything is
fine..Than I would realx a little...
I'm sure they would've done extensive
testing if something were extreemely
wrong..Ya know? I don't know much about
this but like the Dr. Said...Your babe
could just have a narrow head!!
I would take into consideration everything
your Dr. And the specialist have to
say...But don't stress...That does nothing
but make matters worse!!

Thank you sarah it's just that it's a
little hard not to think about and I have
5 weeks until they do another ultrasound
so see how everything is going I will feel
much better after I get that other
ultrasound!
I am not really stressing out about it, it
just bothers me and I wanna know whats
going on in there.........
Thanks for the reply,
cathy

I hear ya on that one girl!!! It's
probably going to drive you up a wall!!
Lol..Not to mention how slowly the 5 weeks
will take!! What I meant by don't stress
is divert your attention to something
else...Just play with your oldest baby and
remember how nervous you were with her and
everything turned out fine!!
Good luck honey...I wish you and your
young one the best!!

Hey! Well I am 28 weeks now but when I
went in for my appointment on feb.03 my
doc told me that my fundal height was too
small so he needed to check if my baby was
ok. So I had an ultrasound when I was
25weeks 4 days and the lady said that my
baby measured 24weeks 3 days. She didn't
tell me anything else though and I am
waiting for my next Dr.'s appointment to
see what he says. It's until the 13th of
february though...
Just try to stay positive, believe me, I
know it's hard not to think about it but
just have faith.
