Baby on 3rd centile!

Posting on behalf of My partner.

We have lost a pregnancy to lethal skeletal dysplasia.

Today is our second pregnancy and we had a 28 week growth scan.

Baby is on the 3rd centile! Femur on 2.5th

Gotta be refered back to fetal medicine. She was under them at 16-20 weeks for several anatomy scans. Baby measured small there too, but on the 15th centile. There are no anomalies at present apart from short femur, but she appears to be in proportion.

We are scared we are going to lose this pregnancy too.

Anyone have any experience with this?

Hi @PenguinPete. I know this was a few months ago and can't offer any reassurance as I'm experiencing a similar situation. I'm so sorry you lost your first baby. I'm currently in first pregnancy and am 29 weeks - waiting for amnio results to see if baby has a lethal form of skeletal dysplasia. I'm very scared about losing her. Her femurs and all other long bones are measuring weeks behind. To me it looks under 3rd centile for all of them. What happened with your pregnancy?
