Ok, so I wasn't really worried too much about LOs size, since the OB I saw said everything looked good. It was a different OB than I usually see because my insurance only covers a certain number of ultrasounds.(My OB just schedules me at a different clinic to get around that) This OB didn't mention anything about the percentiles, just told me weight. At 27w2d she was 2lb 1oz and at this last one(31w2d) she was 3lb 8oz.
I just looked up the percentiles on those weights and she was in the 36th percentile at the 27w ultrasound and in the 26th percentile at this last one. I know weights can be off on ultrasounds. Should I be worried about her dropping by 10 percent in just 4 weeks or is this normal? My DS was a bigger baby and I have no experience with babies measuring smaller.
Oh, and they didn't say anything during the ultrasound, but I did notice when they were doing measurements that her head and abdomen were measuring between 31-32w, but her femur was right around 29w? (That's what popped up in their little measurement box thing) Is that fairly normal?
