Static growth at 33 weeks

I had a growth scan today, which was booked at my 20 week scan due to a single artery umbilical cord.

I also had a scan 2 weeks ago as the "tape measure" measurement had shown static growth from 28 to 31 weeks.

I was told at the scan 2 weeks ago that everything was normal, however 2 of the measurements haven't grown in the last 2 weeks (abdominal and femur). I now need to be monitored twice weekly to check the heartbeat and the fluid levels and then have another growth scan in 2 weeks.

I've been knocked for six and just wondered if anyone has any similar experience with this?

Thanks

My cousin had this at about 33 weeks, can't remember why she had the scan now but they gave her steroid injections as they thought he was going to be prem and monitored her. He was a week early and weighed 7lbs so I think the scans had been a bit misleading. Sorry I'm so sketchy on the details!

Thanks Appley... I'm really hoping that the scan I had a couple of weeks ago wasn't 100% accurate as it appeared A LOT more rushed than the one I had this week.

Anyone else got any experience in this?
