as many of you know, im due to give birth the beginning of April. but 2 weeks ago when i went to my antenatal clinic i found out that the baby has dropped from the 90th centile to the 15th so they sent me for a scan. that put the baby on the 10th so they wanted to see me today to see how she (we found out!!) is growing and it turns out that she isnt as much as she should be. she is now -10centile.

has anyone else had this problem? the hopsital want to see me again next week for another scan and im trying to stay positive, but its hard to when nobody knows why my baby isnt growing and they keep stressing that if i dont notice her move as much, i should go straight to hospital-its like their expecting somthing to go wrong.

my mam had a similar problem with my brother, he was born bang on time and at 3lb 3, but no other problems

i would love to say something to put your mind at ease, but iv never had any kids myself, so wouldnt know anything to do with pregnancy

i hope everything is ok tho, and she arrives safely

keep us all updated ...

Get them 2 check your amniotic fluid level my son was born 1lb 13 oz and it was due to my amniotic level. He is now 10 and weighs 72lbs

A lot of babies have a rest froom growing before they are born. Try not to worry yourself too much. 2 of my grandsons were born a bit early & she had been told they had stopped growing. By the by, they were 4lbs in weight.
Good Luck

I was told my 1st baby was growing too slowly and was scanned every 2 weeks for the last 12 weeks of my pregancy to monitor her weight gain.

I was told to expect a low birth weight baby. Hannah was born on her due date with no complications weighing 8lb 1oz

thanks guys. i will keep everyone posted on how she is. ive checked my records and it says that the fluid volume is normal...so who knows?!

Keep us posted, I bet your baby will be born on a friday as a few on here were.

Sorry Kat, wish could help
All mine were quite big, ranging from 8lb to 9lb 7oz!

Congrats on the baby being a girl
I'm sure we will all be thinking of you over the next few weeks xxxx
