i thought it was considered normal if the
fundal height was within 3 cm of your
gestation. (?)

dr/midwife etc has their own poinion on
what is normal though

my doctor never tells me the measurement.
she just measures it and says "yep, looks
good" and that's good enough for me.

Mine's written down it my hand held notes
so i have a flick through after the
appointment, she told me the 3cm thing
when i was measuring small and she was
explaining to me that they like to send
you for an extra u/s if you're more than
3m smaller than the norm but it doesn't
neccessarily mean anything because every
woman and baby is different
