I had my 36 week midwife appointment yesterday and she did my measurements but I was measuring small so she sent me for a scan and then I had to go to the maternity assesment unit after for monitoring.
So the scan showed baby was small - below 10th percentile, although baby is developing fine. So I have now gone from low risk to high risk and am under consultant care.
I have an appointment next week with the consultant and another scan.
The doctor I was talking to yesterday vaguely mentioned about being induced early as baby would do better out feeding and would gain weight better with milk rather than inside.
I suppose I have to wait till next week before I find out whats happening but its making me a bit anxious (a week has never felt so long)
Has anyone else had an induction for a small baby? How early would they do it do you think?
