Conditions

Macrosomia

Brief summary

5D and 2D ultrasounds will be done for pregnant women with macrosomic fetuses to determine estimated fetal weight using hadlock formula. The accuracy of fetal weight obtained by ultrasound will be compared to actual birth weight.

Interventions

Measure the femur length by 5DLB to calculate fetal weight
