Further update - had a detailed growth scan yesterday and the baby is growing well, still small but consistent growth, we actually shot up to the 18th% from the 15th a fortnight ago. She is still breech and now I have had 3 people tell me she won't turn. Been seeing a Chiro and she said everything is now positioned well there is no reason from her perspective why the baby can't turn, she says the cord must be short or wrapped around the neck preventing her turning, the Dr doing the ultrasound said she won't turn coz of not enough fluid (fluid levels are ok but he said not enough to help her turn) and my OB said last week he didn't think she would turn.
So c-sect is definitely on the cards however, OB now doesn't know when to do it, last week he said 37wks just to play it safe but now since she is doing so well inside he doesn't want to deliver her too early. He normally does c-sec at 39wks but its still a wait and see game. The longer she stays inside the better.
The weight estimate was 2kg which is great, we actually think she is going to be about the same weight as DD1, she was born at 37wks weighing 2.6kg. We also think this is just a small baby and the SUA and low papp-a is playing no part but it better to be closely monitored and be sure than the other options.
Stellasmum - hope everything is still going well for you.
