[QUOTE="Dionne89, post: 1552572, member: 369147"] Hello :) a percentile is an indicatation of the predicted percentage of babies that would have a lower level at the current number of weeks. I.e 95th percentile means 95% of values at 28 weeks would measure lower than your value. As mentioned above the 95th percentile is not referring to your babies size but your PI value (although sorry I'm not sure what that means). I would speak to your consultant if you're worried but these results can vary and that is why they have booked you in for a repeat in a couple of weeks. I also had my 28 week scan this week and was told my baby was measuring big which scared me as I'd worked so hard to get my hba1c at 38. However once I looked into it with the measurements taken I realised she was only just bigger than average, not abnormally big...and what baby is average?! They all vary in size and shapes so try not to get too hung up on these measurements and see how the develop over the next 12 weeks :) . [/QUOTE]
