I had an ultrasound scan today. The results have baffled me.
The sonographer was professional, but had a job to do, and it was obvious she just wanted to get on with it.
I'm 28 weeks, and was referred for a scan today, after my consulatant appointment last Friday, where they diagnosed polyhydramnios, and measuring 4 weeks ahead of dates.
Today the AFI is 16.4cm (which is reassuring), the baby is measuring spot on for dates (again good) - but - she measured the blood flow through the umbilical artery & it is 0.79 (Pl) and 0.0 (Rl).
These measurements mean nothing to me, but on the little graph thing she's put me midway between 5th C & 50th c.
I'm now worried sick that this means the cord bloodflow is compromised, but all she said is all looks fine, but see your GP...!!!
I'm now really worried!
I should add that I'm 41, have a high BMI, had polyhydramnios & large baby last year (with DD, who became distressed at 38 weeks requiring emcs, plus she was unstable lie).
This baby is breech too (I have a low, right-side fibroid), and the Drs can't feel by pressing on me, the presentation (they thought due to polyhydramnios - obviously not the case).
I'm really concerned about the cord bloodflow, and how urgent it is
