    Question Concerned

    Hi everyone,

    Im 34 weeks pregnant, just had m Drs app yesterday, havent put any weight on for my last 3 apps, 30, 32 and 34 weeks. My babys growth has slowed and dropped back, to 30cm, Im not doing anythig different to my last pregnancy and I eat very well and healthy. Just wondering has this happened to anyone ealse. My Dr wants me to have an ultrasound to check bllod flow in the cord, the placenta and basically the babys growth. My last baby was small, 6lb and I went to 40 weeks with an emergency c-section, and he was healthy. Hoping everything will be fine. Thanks for any comments, Lizzy

    Hey Lizzy!

    I haven't put on any weight for a while, I actually lost 4 kgs over 3 weeks and was measuring 32cms at 34 & 36 weeks so I had to have a scan to check cord etc and all was fine! I have to have another on on thursday just to map the growth... if she doesn't have adequate growth we'll need to talk induction etc. But so far she is just little!! And I am sure your bubs is just little too considering the size of your first bub. I wouldn't worry yet!!!
