Hi guys,
Im a first time mum, 22. (very worrying by itself!), I had a MW appointment today where they measured my bump.
Last apt at 32 weeks I was over the 95th percentile - Same again at 34 weeks. My MW said she isn't too concerned that its over because the chart is still showing a curve.. HOWEVER did then go onto say she will need to check at my next apt (36 weeks) and may need to refer me for a growth scan.
MW didn't say anything more about this, just said 'just to see how small the baby is that's all' (which is confusing considering its measuring bigger?)
Really starting to get freaked out now as there is soooo many unanswered questions! can anyone help me out :(
- Does having a growth scan mean there is something wrong?
- Is it common to be measuring bigger when you were originally overweight before pregnancy?
- Does this mean I have to go from midwifery-led to consultant led?
- Does this mean I cant have water birth or use a birthing suite instead of a labour ward?
- does this put me as a high risk instead of 'low risk'?
Sorry guys- any feedback would be GREAT!!
