My LO has IUGR So today at my ultrasound I was informed that she has fell into the 4th percentile & if she shows little…

Good luck!

oh no i'm sorry, i hope it all turns out well she keeps on growing, keeping my fingers crossed for you

I know its scary my doc yold be she is on the small side an i go every 3 weeks now to my high risk doc if she is still not growing right ill get put on bed rest :(

I am sorry you are going through this, definitely hop onto the high risk forum, a lot of the ladies there are sweet and very informative... I know a couple weeks ago a lady had her daughter early because of IUGR and was 30 something weeks, baby was super healthy just little.

Yeah I actually talk to a few of them in the high risk group, it hasn't been a ba pregnancy I just have a little baby:/ so hoping to make it to at least 36 weeks and yes I got put on bed rest & have to see the doctors every week and twice a week for a nst.

I'm sorry your going through this. I was curious how did they decide to check for it? We're you measuring small when the check from the outside of your stomach?

I'm being monitored for the same thing right now, I'm very worried. my doc has me eating more and drinking boost to see if it will help his growth! I'm sorry u are going thru this! u both are in my prayers! if u need someone to talk to please message me!

@Joleen at my 18 week ultrasound they measured the circumference of her head and abdomen , both measured smaller then they should have & have basically slowed in growth since then I'm now 30 and she has fell from the 30 percentile to the 4th over a 12 week period which as the doctor explained is because my placenta is poorly attached & may eventually fail. I'm very scared as to what the future holds , the specialist I seen informed me we have a level 3 NICU & she would have minor complications if delivered but the longer she's in me the better. Made me feel a little better when I was sobbing in the doctors office lol!

@tiffanico89 yes I'm trying to do everything:/ the more I eat the more I gain seems like none of it is even getting to her makes me sad, I just hope our LOs will get bigger, I don't know how ill react to having my baby and not being able to bring her home:(

Good luck Hun!

Hope she stays in and cooks a lil longer!

I'd suggest you to increase your protein intake a lot. A friend of mine went thru something similar and proteins rich diet helped a lot!!!

Just my two cents.

Stay healthy baby girl ?

I hope everything turns out okay momma. Take care of yourself and keep stress down, as hard as it may be!

Good luck! :)
