28 week growth scan baby below 10 centile

[BethHx]

Hi all. Had my 28 week growth scan today and was shocked when they told me my little girl is small. She's measuring below the 10th with a small femur.
I have a scan booked for 32 and 36 anyway so the cons has said he will review further once I've had my 32 weeks growth scan.

If she stays below the 10th are they likely too induce early?
Thanks

Probably not. It's fine to be on the 10th percentile- the worry is if she drops centiles at the next scans or growth is static. Not all babies are big 😊 my youngest was born on the 3rd centile, and I wasn't induced, though there was growth concerns. Glad they are keeping an eye on her x

Thankyou.
My first was below the 10th & had growth restrictions that's why I'm having the scans. So as long as she follows a steady line I should be fine?

I'd say so! I'm not a Dr but it's what they told me at all of my scans xx
