Hi everyone, as the title says really my baby is small growing under the 10th centile, I've been into maternity triage with reduced feral movements 2 out of 3 days this week. Baby movements have dramatically slowed down. I came back in last night after 3 episodes of losing some brown substance which they think Maury be an old bleed, I'm also having irregular tightenings, they admitted me and gave me steroid injections due to have the next one any time now. They have scheduled me for a scan at 3.30 today but it's only been just over a week since the last one. I've also had 2 dodgy ctg traces which didn't meet the Dawes redman criteria I was on for an hour both times but registrar says it's on the low side of normal. WhT do you think they will do? Anyone been in a similar situation??
Thanks in advance for any replies xx

Sorry I haven't had similar but didn't want to read and run. What's happening now? It sounds stressful, has there been talk of an early induction? How recent was the scan, can you request another one? They are only estimates.

Hi so just to update my baby boy was born by emergency c section on Friday morning 6 weeks early his chord was wrapped around his neck. Please don't ignore lack of movements my little man was in distress and I dread to think what could have happened if I wouldn't have listened to my gut instinct! Xx
