27 weeks & small bump?

Went to midwife at the beginning of the week and she said she might send me for a growth scan in 3 weeks time after our next appt as belly looking a bit small. He’s definitely getting stronger as I can feel it in his movements so not worried but...

Growth Scan

Has anyone else been sent for a growth scan and CTG at 32 weeks as baby is measuring small? I’m a bit confused as during a private growth scan on Saturday I was told baby was measuring a week ahead and today at the midwife appointment I’ve been told he’s measuring small on the chart 🤷‍♀️ Trying not to worry, but…

What appointments do partners go to?

My first pregnancy was in COVID 2020, they’ve booked my first appointment I take it that partners or whoever you have for support just attend scans not midwife appointments?

Scan date

I've got my 12 week scan the day of my nephews birthday . We will all be going round there that night, should I wait and not tell the news then ? Is it selfish of me. If we don't tell them then I'm not sure when we would see them after that that didn't look suspicious . He will be 9 so I'm sure he couldn't care less...

20 weeks scan

Hi guys x I had my 20 week scan and everything was in the normal range, however they said that the diameter of her head (the BPD) was a little smaller than average, measuring at 42.9 mm.

Tiny baby

My baby has dropped in percentile every growth scan. Started at 56% to 14% to 5.6% and now 2.9% at 34+4. My doc isn’t too worried cuz dad and I are small people and he’s still healthy but seeing a 1% abdomen measurement is so scary. Does anyone have positive birth stories with percentile readings this low?

Hematomas?

Baby is measuring right on track from our last ultrasound. 💗 They did discover I have two small hematomas, has anyone else had them? They’re doing another scan in a week to see if they shrink or not.

Baby Sunny Side Up

Found out today at my 36w scan that baby is head down, but is sunny side up. Has anyone delivered a sunny side up baby & what was your experience? Or anyone else get this news recently? Doc said it would be fine but could result in a harder/longer labor 🫠
