Can i request a growth scan **warning post may upset**
This pregnancy has been quite hard on me to say the least. I have had a few ups and downs in life, and one of them being the inability to quit smoking.
Before you judge me and think how horrid i am i have really tried to quit. NRT, books, therapy etc. you name it i have done it so please dont think i dont love my baby or that i take this lightly at all. I have cut down to about 10-15 a day from 25-30
But i have been riddled with paranoia (and so i should be i guess) with this pregnancy that he is extremely undersized. I am alot smaller i think then i was with my first son, he was born 8 pounds 11.
My question is, i have about 6 weeks until my due date. If i let them section me (still debating this one) then maybe only 5 weeks. I really need to enjoy the rest of this pregnancy as i have just been depressed and devastated with myself. Can i go to my GP and request a growth scan? just to put my mind at ease a little bit??
Please no judgement, i am already fragile as it is. Just constructive advice.
