    Elevated umbilical Doppler ratio

    That's what happened with DD's pregnancy. The SD ratio was elevated. It doubled in a week when it should have gone down from the previous week. It was 3.something at 32 weeks and 6.something at 33

    That might be it - mine was 4.1 at 32 weeks. I'm not sure what it was today..... When I tried looking it up it was something that was supposed to be going down so it could be the same thing. Did this effect your pregnancy or DD in any way?

    Hello!

    I just found out that I am in the same boat. I went to my specialist and my S/D was 4.0 I am 30 weeks and 3 days. I tried to google what this means, but couldn't find anything. Can you tell me what your outcome was? How did the pregnancy go?

    Thank you so much for any information you can provide!

    Re: Elevated umbilical Doppler ratio

    Hi! I'm sorry you are going through this. Basically I had scans every week and the blood flow into the cord was getting more and more restricted. In the end (due to numerous issues) we delivered at 36+1 (about 3 weeks from when this started). Bubs was only 1.84kg but was fine otherwise.

    Good luck!
