Today I've been admitted to hospital and told my baby will need to be delivered in next 24 hours due to poor growth and almost no waters. Baby is only measuring at 1lb 2oz with a less than 50% chance of survival. My husband and I are devastated and terrified. Has anyone been in a similar situation?

Congratulations xx

My beautiful little Grandson is now 3. He was delivered by LSCS at 32 weeks but was IUGR and only weighed a little over 2 lbs. It's been a long haul, he was in SCBU for some weeks and it was at times very scary and sad. However he is now healthy, happy and delightful. You're in my thoughts

Congratulations Flowers
My waters went at 30 weeks with my ds. He is now a perfectly healthy 3 year old.

It's a frightening time but stay positive.

I'll be thinking of you and your family xx

lifeofatwoworldmummy · 12/10/2016 19:08

Congratulations! Sending positive thoughts and lots of love for you all. Look after yourself and remember to talk about how you are feeling. It is all too easy to be so consumed by what's happening to your little one that you forget about yourself. I know it's scary but you (and her) can get through this xx
