I've posted this elsewhere too but looking for someone who's had this before who can offer their experiance...

We've had our 20 week scan today and baby looks fine with good heart beat, head and face look fine, all torso and organs look good....but all 4 limbs are measuring 3-4 weeks short. Consultant has referred me to foetal medicine for further diagnosis but it's likely to be dwarfism. I can't get my head around it. Nothing prepares you for the possibility of something going wrong and right now I'm devastated. No matter what....I love this baby more than anything, but so hard to comprehend!! Anybody else had this at scan?

Xx
 
as long as the torso is growing at the normal rate it should be ok hun
 
:hugs:Oh hun im so so sorry for your loss . My heart goes out to you XX
