Just had my 34 week appointment and they said my baby was only measuring 29 weeks. Midwife said not to worry but booked me in for the next available growth scan. Of course am very worried now. :(

The gp said she was small at my previous appointment but did nothing, am Angry at him now as midwife said he should have referred me for a scan then.

Just wanted reassurance really!

Anyone had a similar experience? How did things turn out?

hiya!!
try not to worry yourself.

i have read on here that sonographers are getting quite annoyed as the midwives keep sending in ladies with perfectly healthy babies, but they all believe they are too small or too big!

i have beeb told im 2 weeks smaller
but 2 wks latr i was 3 wks bigger!

sorry about bed spelling/ grammer im shattered and just wanted to let you know
