.....should I be worried? Midwife didn't seem overly concerned. Baby isn't engaged yet but is back to back like my DD

Was sure this baby was a boy as well, but now I'm measuring smaller think it must be another little girlie....boys tend to measure bigger don't they?

also if baby uis abck to back its less likely to be showing so much at front anyway either way you have a little baby to look forward to boy or girl still a blessing

my midwife said you can have 4 cm difference before they start to worry your cm should be same as how many weeks you are

i was 30 wks measuring 34 had to be monitored next visit 4 weeks later i was spot on no growth in that time
