Baby went down from 39th to 15th percentile

Hey!

I had my 31 week midwife appointment and was referred to do a growth scan as my bump was measuring slightly under what it was supposed.
I had my scan today and the baby was on the 39th percentile in the 20 week scan and has now gone down to the 15th percentile.
I have now been referred to the fetal clinic for a new scan and an appointment with a consultant - this will happen in a few weeks time.
Has anyone gone through the same and has some advice and feedback on how it went?

Hey, the exact same thing is happening with us. Going through growth scans every 2 weeks and being monitored to see if baby catches up with growth. Obviously don’t want to say anything that might not happen with you of course, they didn’t a placenta check too.

I been going trough something similar but maybe for different reasons. I’m 32 weeks and at 30 weeks she was in the 12 percentile but 3 weeks before that appointment she was in the 16 percentile. I have however been seeing a specialist in the fetal medicine clinic and as long the baby doesn’t drop under 10 and still grows everything should be ok. She has been growing 1lb every other week and my husband is on the shorter side so that cutie be the reason for my girl to be smaller

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!
