I have measured fine for dates until last week when my midwife told me I was measuring a week behind.
I did not read too much into it as she seemed absolutely not bothered by this, however, I went for a private wellbeing scan today at the FMC and I was told that my baby measures below the 5 centile.
I asked why and she then started to measure again the blood flow in the arteries and she said that 2 of the arteries that feed the placenta (out of 4 I believe) are a bit narrower (but still within normal limits). She doesn't know what is causing it but advised I should go for another scan in 2 weeks time.
I have been told to keep an eye on movement and go to the hospital if something feels wrong. I am obviously besides myself with worry and been crying a fair bit.
Does anyone have any experience of this please?
No sugar coating please, what should I expect?
