Hi all
I'm currently twenty two weeks pregnant, had anomaly scan a couple of weeks ago. All was fine with baby (touch wood) but she was measuring a week behind. Sonographer wasn't worried, I don't need to go for additional scans or anything but of course, I didn't really want to hear anything other than 'normal'.
All her measurements are on the scale. Her femur length is in the twentieth percentile and her head circumference is in the fifth. Are they meant to be the same?
I pushed it to the back of my mind until today, when I sensed my mum wasn't being herself. She then admitted she is worried, which made me worry.
I've consulted Dr. Google and of course came away feeling worse than ever after reading about microcephalism and learning difficulties.
I really hope I'm worrying about nothing. Please, if anyone has experienced anything similar, please share, whatever the outcome was.
