Had growth scan today at 34 weeks and except abdominal circumference, everything is measuring bang on for dates.

AC however is very less (under 5 percentile) and efw is 4lbs 3oz.

My amniotic fluid is LOW at 7.2

Ob hasn't classified it yet as IUGR but it's as bad as that.

Have been started on IV drips every alternate day for 10days, weekly NST and next scan at 35+4. If things deteriorate, then steroids and csec at 36weeks.

My first born also had the exact same issues identified at 34weeks and with help of hydration & high protein diet, we were able to take it to 38+4 when he was born at 6lbs

Would love to hear similar encouraging stories and if anyone was able to up the fluid/growth pattern? Anxiety is definitely not helping me. Thnku
 
No help regarding low fluid hon but so glad ure being treated for it and they can get u to full term . Maybe ure just going to have a skinny long baby.
With me it's the opposite. All my babies measurements are normol and within the range but his tummy is big which is odd because me and hubby are both skinny. Me very pattite and him tall and skinny.
I have another growth scan on Wednesday.
