Hey Ladies, I'm 34 wks today.
I had a scan at 31+6 to see if my placenta had moved up or it's still low
In that scan, they noticed that the AC has dropped to 20th %. They asked me to go back in 2 weeks, so had another scan yesterday at 33+6
In yesterday's scan, the baby's AC has dropped to 10th percentile. They told me not to worry as it's still within range & I have to go back again in 2 weeks for my originally planned 36-week scan. If it drops further by that scan, then they will book me a doctor's appointment to discuss next steps
Measurements (percentile %) -
Biparietal Diameter (BPD) - 84th %
Head Circumference (HC) - 73rd %
AC - 10th %
Femur Lenght (FL) - 72nd %
Est. fetal weight - 2146g (4 lbs 12 ozs) - 23rd %
They also told me not to worry about low weight as it's within range. Plus I'm only 5 ft tall so I shouldn't expect a big baby.
I am ok with a small baby as long as they are healthy.
But I'm really really worried about dropping AC
I couldn't sleep all night yesterday & just stressed out
Have any of you ever experienced this or heard about this?
I have MW appointment tomorrow & due to IVF pregnancy, a consultant appointment next week. What questions should I ask them related to this if any (Other than how can I help or if there's anything to worry)
Is there anything I can really do to help with the growth of AC? The MW who discussed with me yesterday said there's nothing I can do.
Any stories, advice, tips will be very helpful & appreciated
