baby measuring bigger lots of questions

My doctor does a ultra sound each time I go. At the moment the baby is one day ahead at each visit. Last time I was 13 weeks and five days and measured 14 weeks. The doctor was also able to tell me that he was 99 percent sure it was a boy from the ultra sound. Anyone else measuring big? I'm losing weight but showing more so I don't know what's going on. Should I worry? The doctor hasn't completed any blood work yet he has done us and let us listen to the heart beat.

I can't imagine if you went full term with him.

Measuring big doesnt necessarily mean you will deliver earlier. Possibly just a bigger baby. My son measured 4 weeks ahead from 24 weeks to the end. I was induced at 36 weeks due to ovarian cyst problems and my son was an 8 pound preemie. Imagine how big he wouldve been full term! :) Dont worry.

Does your doctor think your baby will come early?

Oh honey my little baby is always measuring ahead. The first ultrasound at 9 weeks it was measuring a week ahead and I had another ultra sound at 10 weeks (bc of a scare) and the baby measured at 12 weeks!! It's a fast growing little nugget. I have come to accept I'm gonna have a big baby.
