Doppler

Have they put you on any aspirin?

@Dreia 🪬 yeah 2x 75mg tablets a day, I’ve been on it since the start x

@Charlotte that’s what I’m on, that will help massively. What percentile is your baby at?

@Dreia 🪬 the lady doing the ultrasound didn’t seem concerned, she didn’t even mention it. Just has me a bit worried 😬 I had the same with my first and had to be induced early

If they aren’t concerned then all is good. 🤍

They do it every scan!

I had the same raised pi and slow growth, had scans weekly to keep checking it, once the edf was not present they booked me in for my section, my baby girl was born 23/03 at 36+4 weighing a teeny 4lb11oz .. as long as they have you in for scans and your monitoring movements try not too worry.. I was so scared and panicked but everything should be fine 😁 I wasn’t put on aspirin x

@Kiarra they didn’t do it on my previous scans

@Rebekah thank you. 4lb11 wow! Mine was 5lb8 and I thought he was small! Thank you for the info I’ll keep an eye x

I do at every scan as well as my ob does a doppler check at every appointment, as I had a partial placenta abruption last pregnancy as well as a small baby with unknown reason for growth restriction.

@Charlotte the definitely should have. Basically anytime you see blue and red on the screen they are showing blood flow to whatever part they are looking at

@Kiarra maybe it’s different in the states, I’m in the UK and this is the first of my scans they’ve checked. They only did it towards the end of my last pregnancy too. Unless it’s just the hospital I’m at

@Charlotte I’m getting checked like @Kiarra mentioned too and I’m in the UK. Maybe it’s down to your NHS trust. x

@Dreia 🪬 oh ok, yeah maybe!

@Charlotte yeah she was tiny, she still is she’s 4 weeks tomorrow! She dropped to 4lb7 after birth but was putting on since, last Saturday she was 6lb2oz so still tiny but bigger and growing ❤️

@Rebekah im expecting a 4lb baby girl too soon 💞

@Dreia 🪬 hope everything goes well ❤️
