Small baby?

Question

Has anyone small women ( I’m 5 ft ) and my baby is measuring on the small/ short side. My partner is 6’3. We went to a anatomy scan in December and everything was fine but i never went back for a follow up so today she said i should Bc his head is measuring small. 
Overall she just said I’ll have a small baby but I’m still worried.
I’m also 7 months today

Answer

I had a small baby last time. They were worried about head size and then size in general. She was measuring under 10th percentile via ultrasound right before she was born. She came out perfect, just a bit smaller.

Answer

I’m not sure I can reassure but I’m in a similar situation; this is my first pregnancy. I had my cervix checked at 26w and the checked baby’s growth while they were at it. I was told she’s weighing in the 13th percentile. I’ve got a 28w planned growth scan tomorrow so it’ll give us a clearer understanding of what’s going on. I’m 5’2 and taller than the women in my paternal family so I’m hoping she’s just petite like me!

Answer

My little one was also measuring small. I kept getting sent for extra scans but consultants were always puzzled as to why when all else is great; you can't expect a huge baby from a small woman (I'm tall but very thin).
All will be well :)
My current pregnancy, baby is measuring just right so maybe that things just take time to stretch inside ☺️

Answer

I’m 4’11 and my husband is 6’2 and our baby is small as well. They thought she wasn’t growing at first but she’s just small!
