Should I Be Concerned For Larger Fetal Head And Smaller Femur Length?
Hello, I have been concerned about my baby s femur length and head circumference. At 35 weeks her head was measuring 2 weeks, 3 days ahead and her femur length was measuring 2 weeks behind. Are these measurements a cause for concern? I had the nuchal translucency at 12 weeks which came back at low risk.

Hi welcome to healthcaremagic.
I have gone through your question.
At 35 weeks gestation +/- 2 weeks differentiation is considered normal.
I would advise to repeat ultrasound scan at other radio logist also to be on safe side.
Nuchal translucency is also not to worry.
Hope i. Answered your question.
Would be happy to help you further.
Take care.
