Baby growth

My baby is 93% femur length at 31 weeks, was told he will be a tall baby has anyone else had this? I’m just worried is it possible for him to run out of space if he keeps on being in the 90+% ? I’m a FTM so I’m sorry if I sound stupid just worried my lil one won’t have space by 40 weeks😅

Is he measuring 90% for weight? Mine is 93% for height

Im 5% my baby boys legs are very small!

Had my growth scan on Monday said baby was measuring 50th percentile however femur was 97th 😅 they said they weren’t worried but my first baby was 9lb3 but she was all length also Xx

My first was 99th centile for femur length but they’re really curled up in there so I wouldn’t worry! She was born 8lb 3 is a tall girly - she was straight into 0-3 clothes instead of newborn due to her length

i havnt had any growth scans but when the midwife felt my bump she seemed concerned when she told me the baby has really long legs

I had a scan yesterday and spoke about his femur percentile and was reassured it will not be an issue as he’s most likely going to be heavy due to all of the length thank you to everyone replying though!

That’s what the midwife said to me too. My first little girl was the same 😅 xx

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! 🥰

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

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?
