Anyone measuring really small at 36 weeks?

Question

Baby is 4lbs 14ounces at 36 weeks - 11th percentile - doc said its small fetal growth but not igr - I'm very petite - anyone else? I'm still worried  ;(

Answer

I had my high risk ultrasound at 32 weeks and his head is measuring as if I'm only 30 weeks... So 2 weeks behind, 1%!!!
His abdominal circumference is 98% and he weighs 4lbs 10oz which is 70% 
Everything had been right on track until last week so I'm a wreck... I re do the ultrasound on July 14th

Anyone have any experience with this ????!

Answer

I'm having the same issue but I have marginal insertation of the placenta so they have to keep an eye on his growth. Good luck!!!!!

Answer

At 34 weeks baby was 94th percentile head and 7th percentile abdomen - normal femur measurement. I have to do a repeat growth scan at 36 weeks to see if she has grown. It has been the longest week so far... One more week to wait 🙏🏼

Answer

I am 35 weeks and am measuring small as well. I started out at 118 lbs 5'7 so I was on the smaller size to start out with.

My baby is 4.5-5.5 lbs (they can only estimate based on bone length and brain size)

Since my baby is rather big but I am measuring at a 25 week pregnant woman, my baby is too heavy for my body to hold and there for is putting too much strain on my cervix causing a shortened cervix. I am now currently on bed rest due to this.

In conclusion, if your baby is growing, and you are not at a high risk pregnancy (as I am), I feel you and your baby will be fine! Just take it easy and talk to your OB/midwife as much as you need... That is what we pay them for ;)

Answer

Mine is on the lower end (30th percentile) and femurs are small (2nd) but head big (93rd). My doc said not to worry and that if something is up they would tell you!

Answer

Yes. My son is measuring 11th percentile, i have placenta previa and being referred out to a specialist. He looks great and amniotic fluid looks great but very tiny. I am 35 weeks tomorrow and doing twice weekly nsts. Right now not considered iugr just sga.

Answer

When I was 35 weeks my baby was weighting 5lbs 9oz I tort that was small

Answer

We've been 4th percentile since 22 weeks and we're diagnosed IUGR. My docs aren't even very worried anymore since she's doing so well. 11th percentile is small but probably normal!
