Hi , thought I should up date you , so you can update your post, our baby grew his angel wings , this would be the first time I been on Since ,
Hope everyone's pregnancy happy and healthy x

I'm so sorry to hear this. How far along were you? Did you choose a name & would you like to share if so? It's so terribly hard

 

[Squig34]

Thanks ladies
He is measuring between 10 and 12 days smaller...
I have my anatomy scan on Tuesday but im not expecting anything.

When eli was born they tested everything possible and my placenta was in the 95th percentile so that was fine and they made me have an amniocentesis last time because of his short limbs/ measuring smaller but came back normal. When he was born he looks absolutely normal in size/ length.

Maybe he is just going to be small? And my dates are right i know when I ovulated and lmp..

Oh and i am getting extra scans due to my loss so I can definitely monitor closely

I was told recently that 10 days' difference at this gestation doesn't give the docs any cause for concern & from what I understand unless baby is 10th centile or less, it's small for gestational age rather than IUGR. I hope your next scan shows some improvement & that somehow you will find a way not to worry too much. sending lots of good thoughts & wishes to your little one.

Ill attach a picture of the measurements they did but it says <5th%

 

[gaiagirl]

ehjmorris that must be worrying but there has to be babies in that lowest percentile, or it wouldn't be a percentile! Still definitely express concerns with your doc and make sure they monitor enough to help reassure you! Hugs.

Wannabemum so sorry to hear about your loss xoxo

Gaia - you've probably seen this but I googled white spot in the chest and found an old mumsnet thread with a very similar scan, and the mum subsequently found out that the spot was most likely harmless swallowed blood from an early bleed that the mum...

Thanks! Oh yes I've been ALL over Google. It's frustrating because of hundreds of posts out there on bright spots, only 1 or 2 referred to spots in chest not associated with lung. Mostly its all about the heart or other organs. And there's literally no info on entire web about what this even COULD be. Probably that means that it's nothing and I should stop obsessing...and be glad it's not associated with any organ. It's probably as my midwife suspected, calcification on a ligament or tendon. I just hate unknowns And waiting.

 

[gaiagirl]

Oh and I do have an anterior placenta and it's such a bummer! Still barely feeling any movement at all.

Wannabenewmum, prayers to you and your family

23 weeks today, my ticker is a day behind.
One more week till V day. That came around so so quickly!

 

[Boo44]

Wannabeanewmum I'm so genuinely sorry for you and hope you're ok xxx

V day seems like such a bigger deal for me this time round.

V day seems like such a bigger deal for me this time round.

And me! I can't explain it, I'm so much more anxious this third time than ever before. It's like 3 weeks away for me, my pregnancy is going sooooooo slowly

 

[AngelofTroy]

I'm anxiously waiting for V day too. Although it scares me too that our baby still has so much developing to go. My friend's 18 month old was born ON his V day and is a little miracle! He went through so much and still has a long way to go, he is on oxygen at home and is often in hospital still but he's such a happy boy! An absolute inspiration!

Is it 24 weeks?
Think my brain had gone to mush I keep thinking it was later on madness!
When's 3rd tri counted from? Xx

 

[vaniilla]

So many ladies close to V day! I agree that it's a definitely a big relief reaching that milestone.


two days for those of us having a scan on Monday, I wish it was today I feel so nervous waiting!


I've always known third tri as 27 - 41 but some count it as 28 - 40.




One of my wisdom tooth is hurting- it seems to start stop coming through every couple of months with 3 of them taking it in turns, blaahhhh.

 

[GeralynB]

I just had all 4 of my wisdom teeth out last May. Glad I did as it was long overdue

 

[MiraclesHappn]

I am also a week away from v day as of today and feel really anxious about getting there. Last time I didn't give it much thought but it feels so important this time!

 

[Becyboo__x]

Months are flying by I feel! Gone so much faster this time then with DS

Only 4 weeks til my midwife appointment then I'll be nearly in 3rd tri madness! ..

Feeling crappy still I know it's stress ..I can't avoid it though with the separation and sorting myself financially it's not great .. its likly I'm going to be penniless for a good month+ I don'tknow how II'll be able to live if I'm honest .. I feel like locking myself in a room and just crying feel such a failure to my son and baby

 

[Starlight32]

I've never heard of v day until this site. What is it exactly? One week away until 24 weeks!

I agree with i think it was gaia who said it's still a percentile!!! babies grow at different rates for sure! don't worry yourself until you know something definite. you don't need the stress!

same for me. very strange. i can't wait. three more weeks.

I like counting third as 27! makes it closer lol. Feels like i'll never get there. and at the same time i can't believe i'm this far along.

i'm sorry hun. seriously if there is anyway locking yourself in and crying will make your feel better i'd do it. it would release some tension built up in you i think. Sometimes, you just gotta cry.

V day is viable day. Thats the day that if you went into labor after that point your baby would be most likely to be saved and live! We all wait patiently for v day.



afm- 21 weeks today. Just waiting around really to see what happens with gram. i feel like i'm in limbo.
