Hi, my last baby was born on the 0th percentile and I'm pregnant again and have to have scans at 28, 32 and 36 weeks.

Has anyone else had this experience? I'm an older mum (43) and they're worried about the placenta

Hi, me too! My first was born 40+4 weighing 5lb 2oz - this was 6 years ago and no one seemed that bothered but am pregnant again now and it seems like quite a big deal (not complaining at all as its good to know there is extra care). I have serial growth scans every 3 weeks, the first one was today at 26wks. Baby is currently on the small side on the 14th centile but unless she goes under the 10th centile they are happy so we'll see!
