Measuring Small?

Question

Just had my 27 week ultrasound and baby is measuring small. Doctor said she's in the 10th percentile and weighs 1 lb 15 oz. My first daughter weighed 2 lbs at 26+6. Anyone measure small and everything ended up perfectly fine? Trying not to worry or stress...😕

Answer

Me! My daughter had IUGR and was born at 5lbs even at 37+5. Totally healthy though, no NICU time at all. Her blood sugar was a touch low so we supplemented with formula for a few days, but once I was able to see a lactation consultant and correct her latch, we didn't need the formula anymore. And her bilirubin was a little high but not high enough to need any treatment, it went down on its own. She had to get an extra blood test to confirm it was fixing itself but that's all! She caught up fast and tripled her birth weight by 5 months.
