Baby measuring small

I just had my 28 week appointment and they said baby was measuring small and I need growth scans, I saw her write down 25cm so it looks like I’m measuring 3 weeks behind, did anyone else have the same and everything was fine? I am really petite anyway and I haven’t put much weight on this pregnancy at all but I’m eating a good amount and I feel healthy otherwise, just want some reassurance!:(

I had this. I was a high risk pregnancy due to epilepsy and had 4 week growth scans. Meds I am on can make baby small. Went down to 2 week when there was an anomaly in the scans. Had a baby at 29 weeks naturally. Baby was 6 pounds 15 ounces. There is a lot of scanner error that can also be a factor:)

I wouldn’t worry much about it , my bestfriend was told her baby was going to be small the entire pregnancy and they were monitoring her saying she was only going to be 5lbs and she was 6lbs 12 oz

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?
