fundal height

i know i can google this, but it was easier for me to post on here....

is the fundal height supposed to measure the exact amount of weeks you are? so 30 weeks = 30cm? I have been getting measured for a while, but went to a diff dr in the group yesterday and she told me my measurement (they never told me before)...i am 28cm but i am 30+ weeks....should i be concerned or is there a range?

You're ok. There's a range of 1-3cm either way. So, at 30 weeks, you should be between 27 - 33cm. At 31 weeks, you should be at 28 - 34cm, etc.

my doctor never even measured my fundal height, so i wouldn't be concerned if things were off a bit.

I agree with the +/-3 cm from the week you are. Fundal height was used as an approximate before all the ultrasounds that we get now. When I had DD 13 years ago they did a dating u/s in the beginning, a 12 week my scan and that was it unless there was something wrong or if I were to have measured off by a lot towards the end. I was always closer to the -3 cm fundal height if not -4 and DD was born at 6.14 at approx 38.5-39 weeks
