U/S at 32w ?'s: Ultrasound measurements are not always precise measures of fetal age, as different pregnancies grow at different rates. The measurements provided are consistent with 32w plus and at 35, the actual date of your last ovulation may have been later than is estimated, so your fetus may show as slightly smaller and your date of delivery may be later than predicted.

Paid for a private 3d scan at 14w4d and in one of the pictures my son looks like he has no chin. Ultrasound tech said dont worry babies are still developing alot at this stage. Can this be a true physical defect or perhaps just the angle? Nervous?

Baby's head growth is 2 weeks behind the rest of the body (week 32 of Pregnancy). What's the number of weeks threshold for a risk of Microcephaly? is it 6 to 10 weeks behind or should we consider two weeks behind as a an indication to Microcephaly ?
