Before 12 weeks the diameter of the uterus in cm is approximated by bimanual exam.
After 20 weeks, we check the fundal height in cm to estimate the weeks of preg.
BUT what about BETWEEN 12-20 weeks? what do we use as an estimation of weeks at this time?

yes it is also with fundal height !.
when we find fundus at symphisis that means she is i n her 12 week !and when at umbilicus means either !.she is at her 20 or 22 weeks !.
and in between that corresponds to the date of pregn (i mean !.for example if she is in her 14 weeks the fundus will be above symphyisi pubis and below umbilicus but nearer to the symphysis pubis and if she was in her 17 week or 18 week it will be also above the symphysis and below the umbilicus but her it will be nearer to the umblicus .
