High percentile

some babies are just bigger! all babies are different sizes. I think as long as they didn’t mention any concerns, i wouldn’t worry. it’s not necessarily all about percentiles as it is staying on that percentiles growth chart. so not a problem that baby is 83rd percentile if they stay that way, but would be if she went from the 83rd to 30th or the opposite for example ❤️ if they have any concerns they will tell you! they have no reason to hide things. if you cannot shake the worry, ring the midwife for an appointment, and ask for a debrief of the scan as they will be able to tell you from your notes xxx
Thanks ladies. I have a consultation appointment next week with a doctor so I will be sure to seek some more guidance then. For now, I am happy with my life giraffes progression ha!
Hey Kelly. I had a 98th percentile baby in 2021! I needed more growth scans in the last few weeks and met with the consultant regularly to check all was well bjt was signed off for a home Birth even though he was big. It was fine, had a vaginal delivery didn’t need assistance. He was born 9lb and has always been very tall! At 3 he’s nearly 2/3rd my height 😬 but his daddy is very tall Growing another one currently on 97th percentile! Don’t worry too much - it’s all new so I know it’s stressful but it’ll be fine. Probably just a few more chances to see your little one on scans which I quite liked!
Iam in the 90 percentile and midwife had no concerns that I believe as she didn’t say anything like there was x
