I went to see my midwife last week and she told me that the baby measured 29 weeks rather than the 32 weeks it should have done. She booked me in for an appointment two weeks later to check the growth. This appointment is on Tuesday. If the baby still seems small I will have to have a growth scan. What happens if the growth scan also proves that the baby is too small? What is deemed too small? I am quite small myself and was also a small baby - I was nearly 3 weeks late but barely weighed 6 pounds. Is it inevitable that I should carry a small baby? Perhaps I should be glad it is small! Can anyone help?
