hi everyone
I thought I'd do another gerneral post as my SIL is really worried. (please see the Pray this little one hangs on thread for background....)
A slight wobble tonight but hopefully some of you might be able to reassure us.
VBLB's scan results today have left dSIL a little concerned. at 28 weeks he/she was measuring 1.3 kilos and was described by the doctor as 'chubby' and at the top of the weight percentile, today at 32 weeks he/she weighs 1.9 kilos and is now in the bottom 20% for weight. The doctor has said he will scan in two weeks and if the weight gain has not picked up he will deliver VBLB then at 34 weeks. If movements slow down SIL is to go straight to emergency.
SIL is understandably upset and worried as it sounds so serious but the doctor said he wasn't worried. She is trying to stay calm and I'd love to be able to reassure her. Has anyone heard of or experienced this?
Just a bump in road I"m sure. Please keep sending love and prayers and thoughts of strength and chubbiness!, just a few more weeks to go...
