The answer varies depending on how many children the woman has had, whether she is having multiples and maybe a few other things. Doctors measure the uterus by using a tape measure on the centimeter side. The start at the top of the pubic bone and end at the top of the uterus. Measuring 15 centimeters at 15 weeks is typical, but in the case of women who have had large families, their uterus at 15 weeks could be up to their belly buttons. And multiples have their own set of difficulties in measuring. Ultrasound is the most effective way of determining the gestational age of the baby.
