Fetal size by weeks of pregnancy height and weight
How do you determine fetus size by week? The size of a fetus can be estimated using a variety of techniques, which is why different sources will provide different figures. The estimated fetal weight (EFW) and height of a fetus are determined by experts using formulas that are not always the same. Equations for estimating weight typically employ the following measurements: femur (thigh bone) length (FL), head circumference (HC), abdominal circumference (AC), and biparietal (head) diameter (BPD).
