26 week scan - short FL

Just looking for a bit of reassurance or any experience...

I'm 26+5, just came back from a growth scan which showed one of my twins FL below 5th centile I think measuring at 44.7mm

Our consultant said it was something to monitor but not worry about at this stage but it's just worried me that it's taking a downward turn.

Does anyone have any advice or experience with slow growth? X

@Babyisi he was absolutely perfect :) he's 10 months now and has had zero growth problems, didn't need any time in NICU or assistance.

If I could go back I'd not even look at the measurements... they're not accurate and cause worry for no reason!

Hope that helps 😊 everything will be absolutely fine.
