Marginal cord insertion and delayed growth in baby

Yesterday at my anatomy scan I leaned my baby is measuring one week behind, she was 5 days behind from the beginning. They really alarmed me about it and now have determined I have marginal cord insertion meaning my umbilical cord isn’t centered and it can prevent all nutrients from getting to the baby. I spoke to a genetic counselor and they doubt it’s genetic but I’m going to do an amniocentesis next week out of precaution. Has anyone else dealt with this? My health system tends to be overly cautious and I think most facilities don’t even have the technology to detect marginal cord insertion. I’m trying not to worry too much, but it’s hard.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

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!
