measuring lower than 10th percentile?

Question

Just had my midwife appointment today & she's said in measuring under the 10th percentile. I'm 28 + 3, she's booked me in for a growth scan tomorrow morning... Anyone had this? Is it common? Does that mean baby's measuring small?

Answer

Last month my baby had a check up and was still at the 5th percentile. She's passed any test with flying colors and they monitor her by giving me stress tests twice a week they think it'd just geneticsvat this point since my 2 boys where small full term baby's

Answer

At my 35 week appointment, my baby was measuring in the 10th percentile. Since then I've been having weekly scans to monitor him and was told I'll be induced at 39 weeks so he can grow more outside the womb. Then at my 38 week appointment, he jumped up to the 22nd percentile and I not longer need to be induced :) Not sure if this had anything to do with it but as soon as I found out he was small, I cut out all caffeine from my diet and drank a Boost protein shake everyday. Hope this helps!

Answer

They told me my son was measuring in the 37th percentile at 37 weeks. He was born a few days later and was only in the third percent. He's completely healthy and growing like a weed. Ultrasounds a lot of time are not accurate so don't stress too much.

Answer

I've just had ANOTHER growth scan because of this. Drives me mad. I'm measuring 4 weeks behind and she's absolutely perfect on ultrasounds 😊 fundal height is very inaccurate x
