hi, your wife's ultrasound report means she is having a pregnancy of approximately 18 weeks. gestational age calculated by ultrasound has a error of 2 weeks at 18 weeks which means that your wife's pregnancy is between 16 and 20 weeks. unstable lie is about position of baby. it means baby is changing its position randomly. lie becomes fixed after 34 weeks of pregnancy. before this we cannot comment upon final lie. It ultimately decides the mode of delivey.
