The average length is 71 and my baby's length is 69.5 (on the lower end of the scale). All other measurements were ok. Should i be worried?

I wouldn't worry about it. The difference is only 1.5... that is not a huge difference.. 69.5 is only an "average length"... not the "something is wrong if it is not this exact length"..
All babies are different...
Good luck and Congrats!
Also try to remember that none of these measurements are exact while the baby is still in utero..

Did the doctor tell you to worry. I wouldn't worry. I think it might depend on your genes for such a minor difference. If it were off by 5 or 10 then I might worry. Some people like Koreans tend to have short muscular thighs. I don't know all the races, but I'm pretty sure it's okay.

No. Sounds like your baby is still on the scale of normal so just relax and look forward to the miracle of life.
Even if it turns out that your baby is not "normal" as one of my children turned out to be, once you adjust to the fact, that child will become just as precious and just as much a source of enjoyment as if he/she was "normal". If fact my disabled daughter makes me laugh and enjoys life as much as any 3 other "normal" kids combined.

Nothing to worry about unless your Dr. tells you "there's a problem". Try not to stress. Enjoy your pregnancy & CoNgRaTs!!

Did you talk to your OB/GYN about this? They might be the best equipped to handle this question.
