Lol your not a whale!! My babys just
under growth or something I think. My
doctor said its 4-6 inches long, and on
the chart it says it should be 10 1/2
inches long, so I think shes just short.
I know im only a couple days ahead of
you...When you went for your u/s how long
did they say your baby was? Cause I think
mine should be the same, shouldent it?

When I had my ultrasound a little over 2
weeks ago they said he was about 10.25
inches long and a little under 6 inches
"from crown to rump". Reading your other
post I was thinking maybe that's what they
were talking about with yours.

They measured his legs but they told me
the thing they were concerned about most
was how his organs are developing so the
"crown to rump" thing is what my dr was
most interested in. Of course the main
thing I think I feel is his legs. :lol:

So the chart that says a 22week old unborn
baby should be 10 1/2 inches long is
"crown to rump"?
...Since the legs arent added till later
on, according to jessa...
Right?

Ok, so my baby is roughly 10.9 inches
long
4-6 inches "crown to rump"
so apparently my doctor did add the
legs.
I just didnt know what the 4-6 stood for,
thanks krista :):):)

Your picture is cute. I can't believe
your belly is still so small.
