Wondering if anyone can calm me down..
I had a private scan at 18+6 weeks and all was fine generally but when I got home and read the scan report it measure the FL in 43rd centile, HC 50th centile and AC 83rd centile. Wasn’t too concerned. Fast forward and I went for my NHS scan at 20+3, this time FL in 28th fentile, HC 73rd and AC 95th.
sonographer referred me for gestational diabetes but no comments on the other measurements.
I think if I looked at either of these scans isolated, I wouldn’t be concerned, but it seems that the head and abdomen are growing very quickly and the femur length is slowing down. Stupidly I started googling and feeling very anxious now that there could be a more serious problem with baby such as skeletal dysplasia or dwarfism.
does anyone know much about this topic, do they do other checks at 20 week scan that would identify one of these conditions? Is it normal for there to be such a variation of centile between FL, HC and AC? How accurate are these measurements?
having had two MC before this pregnancy I’m a real worrier and have convinced myself there is something wrong with the baby 😞
