Patient's question:
Due to the delivery date being in mid-January, yesterday's ultrasound results showed: biparietal diameter (BPD) 94mm, femur length 71mm... My friend gave birth yesterday, but her ultrasound results were: biparietal diameter (BPD) 92mm, femur length 73mm... By comparison, is my child's head relatively larger? And are the legs not proportional? (Note: Both my partner and I are not tall.)Doctor's answer:
Guidance: Hello, the duration of pregnancy is calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period. Generally, the gestational sac can be detected through ultrasound at the fifth week of pregnancy. Around the 20th week, the fetal heartbeat can be heard using a stethoscope. The fetal age, however, is calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period.Generally, doctors recommend that women with signs of potential genetic risks should rest in bed and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should also pay attention to maintaining a comfortable environment, which is conducive to rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
