Had my anatomy ultrasound this past Wednesday!

At 20 weeks they scheduled my anatomy ultrasound and told me some good news! They told me that my little dude is growing right on track and they he looks great. But told me that they wanted me to come back in at 28 weeks to make sure he was still growing right. I’ve had FGR with both my girls and was very nervous to hear it again. The OB that did the ultrasound told me I wasn’t high risk, but my OB that I see for my regular ultrasounds told me that I was high risk because my chances of getting preeclampsia is very high. I don’t know what I can do to not get preeclampsia with this being my first pregnancy that my baby doesn’t have FGR I feel this is good but I’m also really scared. Any good words of advice? (FGR is Fetal growth restriction. For anyone who doesn’t know that abbreviation.

For prevention of preeclampsia I was told by my dr to take baby aspirin every day! I have been taking it since week 12.

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

Almost 37 weeks + told to do another growth scan

I just had my second to last doctor’s appointment this morning, and my OB told me she wants me to do another growth scan because my belly is measuring small. She says it’s probably just because I’m a smaller woman, but they like to be safe. It’s hard to hear though, since I just did one a couple months ago.

I did this with my firstborn around this time of pregnancy, so I do think I just carry smaller (even though I don’t feel like I look “small” at all). My first baby was 6lbs 15oz when she was born at 41 weeks + 2 days. I’m having this baby at 39 weeks on April 7. I hope she’s still at least 6lbs.

Anyone have any stories similar to this?
