Short femurs in anomaly scan?

Question

Has anyone else been told their little one has short femurs? We had anomaly scan this week and everything else was perfect but femurs are measuring around the 3rd percentile so been referred to a consultant and will be scanned again next week.
I have been reading about what this could mean so of course now super worried about all the bad things that could happen!

Answer

My little girl's femurs are measuring in the 23rd percentile. The doc didn't seem to concerned but said I'd probably get another scan in a few weeks to see how they are doing.

Answer

It’s possible that those are just growing at a lower rate right now and could catch up later. I had my anatomy scan this past Monday and his femurs were in the 96% percentile with everything else normal. Hopefully your next checkup will provide answers and peace of mind. Best of luck, Momma 🙂
