31 weeks growth scan

[Alwaystired99]

I've just had my 31 week midwife appointment and apparently my bump is still where it was at 28 weeks so I'm getting sent for a growth scan tomorrow morning. The midwife even said that the tape measure is notorious for getting it wrong and not to worry but I'm already crying and stressed. My son was small, 6th centile when he was born, so I was due a scan at the end of next week but this is scaring me so much. Plus, partners are apparently now allowed into my trust's 12 and 20 week scans (not that mine was in the middle of lockdown) but not to growth scans so it's another scary scan on my own. Sorry, feeling very sorry for myself.

Hi,
I am having the same and got my growth scan tomorrow. Feeling very nervous !
My last two appointments I had different midwives and they’ve also plotted on the graph different to what they’ve told me I measured at. She did say the baby was laying sideways so she couldn’t get an accurate measurement but some how I measured less than at 28 weeks !
Feeling really paranoid now about the size of my bump and keep comparing to others :( keep me updated how you get on!
What did they measure you as? Lots of my friends have said they’ve all had growth scans and everything has been fine x
