A member asked:
Hi doctor, i am currently 37weeks pregnant and baby is lying in transverse position. fundal height measured 36cm only. previously, fundal height is more than the gestational age. is it concerning about the fundal height measuring lower than usual?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No. When a fetus assumes the sideways position, fundal measurements derived from studies of head down babies do not apply. You would expect the sideways position to reduce fundal height.
