Possible c section at 35 weeks

I’m 34 weeks and had a growth scan today. My child’s abdomen hasn’t grown as much as they think it should have. I have to go back next week for another scan and if it’s still not grown as much as it should then I’ve been told to expect a c section next week.
This is a total bolt out of the blue and I’m freakishly out a bit. Has anyone had a similar experience? X

I had that exact same thing at a growth scan at about 32 weeks. They scanned again 2 weeks later, all fine. They said that the margin for error in these measurements is so great that there was probably never anything to worry about! All that worry for nothing.

Babies are pretty much fully ready by 35 weeks, he/ she would be fine if born now anyway.

Don't worry x
