Baby has been measuring between the 6th and 7th percentile for the last two ultrasounds, at 28 and 32 weeks. I just spoke to my midwife, and she isn't worried about it at this point. She said we'll be keeping an eye out with frequent ultrasounds, and to be alert about movement, but he looks healthy, fluid level is good, and she thinks he's just a little guy. But this 6th percentile thing is still freaking me out. DH and I are short but not tiny (I'm 5'4" and he's 5'7"), and neither of us was born small.
Anyone else had a totally healthy tiny baby and feel like reassuring me a bit? And are there any questions I should ask at my appointment Tuesday? The midwife said that we won't officially "worry" unless he drops below 3rd percentile, and even then it would just be more frequent scans.
