🤰Anyone else have breech baby & measuring small? 🤰

Question

Doctor told me at my 27 weeks appointment that my baby girl is breech and also she’s measuring one week behind and they’re talking about inducing me at 37 weeks has anyone else  had this happen to them?

Answer

aren’t they all breech until they flip towards the end of pregnancy?

Answer

Why would they want to induce you so early? Baby's position doesn't matter yet, they still have timeamd room to flip

Answer

My son it breech and also measuring a week behind. My doctor isn't concerned because he's still growing as he needs to, everything looks good, he also said sometimes an ultrasound measurement can be inaccurate. Like too small or too big. 
He's healthy and every test has come back fine.

Answer

I’m also measuring 1week behind but the doctor told me it’s normal to measure up to 2 weeks behind

Answer

I’d maybe get a second opinion. Baby still has time to turn and measuring a week behind doesn’t seem like that would be a reason to induce. Some women have small babies.

Answer

Yesterday they told me I was breech but they said to come for another ultrasound in two to four weeks to see how he’s progressing... nothing about inducing me...

Answer

Mine is breech but measuring a week ahead. I’m praying she doesn’t stay breech and that she isn’t huge. My son who is 7 was my biggest and he was 8.5lbs at 39 weeks. My 14 year old was measuring small. Labor was induced with her at 36 weeks and only weighed 4lbs 3oz.

Answer

My baby is measuring small 2-3 weeks behind at this point. 
We’ve seen extra doctors and done extra tests. I have no answers other than she’s small and has been diagnosed with a chromosome problem. 
But she looks good otherwise.

Answer

Breech is normal at 27 weeks . My daughter didn’t flip until 38

Answer

They have no basis to induce you just because she is breech at 27 weeks. She has 13 weeks to turn head down! And measuring 1 week small isn’t really much concern. How did the figure she was measuring small? I would deny an induction unless it becomes very apparent that she need to come early.
