Growth scan - concerned 36weeks

My baby has gone from 4lb 2oz to 6lb 15oz, I have been told I have to see a consultant within the next week about this. The tummy is measuring big at 94%.

Has anyone else had this? I’m slightly worried due to how big the tummy is.

Do you mean 6lbs 15oz? If not it sounds like one of those scans probably the most recent one is highly inaccurate and I would be getting a 2nd opinion.

When was the growth scan before this? Is everything on high centiles or just the tummy?

Similar. Normal growth at 20w, then increased fundal measurements and a growth scan at 35w estimated him to be 7lb 2oz. In my case my scan was very accurate, he was born 2 days after that scan at 6lb 14oz. Late onset GD presumed to be the cause.

My little one was measuring similar at 36 weeks. He came at 38+4 and weighed 7lb 10 x

No worries ❤️ What is the time fame between scans? I really would try not to stress although I know that's easier said then done but growth scans aren't 100% accurate and do have quite a large margin of error if you look into it. 😊

My last growth scan was 4 weeks ago today

I’m kind of confused… Where is the concern at?? Because it’s a big baby? My son was similar to this. He came out at exactly 40weeks, almost 9Ibs. And was healthy. we were apart of the 97percentile, but it was mostly his height. My tummy was big because I also had polyhydramnios. Are they concerned baby is growing too fast??

Was told at 20 week scan that the baby was too small, we are now having growth scans and have been told my placenta isn't working properly and the baby is on the 3th percentile anyone had this experience?.

need advice

Im just wondering if there is any one out there that is past 37 weeks had a scan done and seen that there little one is engaged?
I had alot of movement yesterday/last night with my little one. Going to go to bed and the cramping started but they didn't last long and adventually I was able to go to bed.
I woke up the morning able to get out of bed straight away walk and didn't have a limp like I usually done with my sciatica and also was able to sit oj my bed and bend over to pick my phone up of the ground that was on charge with out my belly getting in the way.
I dont see my consultant until Monday so will be all the wiser then if baby is engaged I just hope he is and thats what the cramping was for

Red line on nose

My baby woke up from his first nap of the day with this red vertical line on his nose (and a little bit below it). He is 11 months old.

Any idea what this is? Should I be concerned?

He slept in his cot, which is empty, and I am not aware of him hitting his nose in his sleep.

TIA Xx

Reassurance

Just wondering if anyone else went through this. I’m genuinely anxious

So I’m 18 weeks pregnant, and I started spotting around 12pm today. I thought nothing of it because it can sometimes be normal. But I kept spotting till 8pm. I went to the er and they said that the baby is very low on my pelvis when he should be higher by now. The ultrasound showed the heartbeat (I wasn’t shown it) and they said that everything looks normal but they can’t do more testing because there was no one at the lab to test my blood samples or swab. They sent me home still bleeding (the spotting was pink earlier but now it’s gotten to a brighter red color) I have tender pelvis but no pain. Has anyone gone through something similar? Being sent home with no explanation and still bleeding to me is wild.

Fourth C section

Any mommas in their 30s had a fourth or more c section? I’m 32 and want to have another child but it would be my fourth c section. My last three were fine no complications but now that I am getting older I am worried and think it’s time to close this chapter of having more kids. 💔
