im 28+2 and went for a scan yesterday. ive had to have extra scans as i have raised bmi, pcos and risk of diabetes.
baby was extremely active during scan and it was confirmed im having a baby boy.
after the scan i was called in for another as the sonographer got low measurements for baby - in particular the abdominal circumferance, femur length and weight estimation. none of them were on the line for the percentile thingy.
so she did another scan, and got even worse measurements. then i was called in again so another sonographer could take the measurements, which pretty much matched up to the first scan i had that day.
i was told my baby is not gaining weight as to be expected and instead of weighing 2.5 pound approx, he weighs 1lb 13oz which is only 5oz more than he weighed when i went for my 20week scan.
the sonographer spoke to the consultant who said due to the fact baby was VERY active, and the doppler test showed good blood flow, im not an urgent case to be seen by him, but i have an appointment for in 2 weeks time.
theyve told me not to worry, but its all im doing and cant stop looking it up on the net and keep reading about how low weight can lead to still birth!
i dont know why this has happened. ive never smoked. gave up drinking the day i found out i was pregnant. dont take drugs, not even medication. i eat well since getting pregnant.
cant stop worrying and i feel aweful that they have left me for two weeks not knowing whats going on or if baby is ok
