28 week growth scan follow up.. FL not grown in 2 weeks??? STRESSED!

3 Replies

Hey guys!

I’ve just had a follow up growth scan and from 26 weeks gestation the femur length has grown 1mm, and they’ve gained less than 200g! I also had quite a bit More fluid but now classed as upper normal range.

So stressed out! Has this happened to anyone before?? So worried about the little one not growing!! Waiting on consultant to come see me.

Any advice or stories would be so much appreciated. Thanks xx

Hi Hun, my 28 week growth scan was fine but my 32 week growth scan showed my baby hadn't grown or gained much weight at all. I had a doppler scan/ fluid checked the following week then a growth scan at 34 weeks which were all fine. At 36 weeks they said only his head had grown. My 38 week scan showed he is growing fine but is just on the small side ( estimated weight 5lb 8oz ). My consultant said some babies just do this or the sonographers measurements can be out. Hope you get on ok with your consultant. 😘x

Ugh so stressful being a mama. Nobody told me this was gonna be so aniexty fuelled!

Hopefully the FL will of caught up at next growth scan!! Fingers crossed.

Still waiting on consultant. And google is not helping me keep sane! 😂 xx
