🤷🏼♀️ I’m having my baby at 38 weeks due to his small size...why you ask because if my body isn’t doing anything to make him grow why on earth would any doctor in their right mind leave the baby inside to wither away with the placenta🤦🏽♀️. IUGR is serious business a baby under the 10% is kinda a problem & leaving the baby in will not make the baby magically get better, your placenta isn’t doing it’s job hence why the baby isn’t growing at the correct speed.... I’m so glad my baby boy has made it this far because my daughter was not this lucky she had to come out 7 weeks early for the exact same reason. So if my doctor says hey we are inducing or we are scheduling a c section I don’t wanna hear no “let baby cook” because he can’t cook if the oven isn’t working. 🤷🏼♀️.

I had a cesarean at 37wks due to iugr (and being breech) I feel you momma. He was under 5 lbs at birth but he's slowly catching up😊 good luck to you!!

The exact same happened to me, I had to be induced at 38 weeks my daughter was 5 lbs 11oz and came out healthy and passed all her tests! We took her home the very next day. Prayers to you mama, you’ll do great!

IUGR is one of the few reasons induction is necessary. Someone doesn’t know you have an IUGR baby if you don’t say it. Not that you should have to reveal your medical records, but you should be understanding that in *most* cases it’s better for baby to bake.

I like how you came with the facts!

Hope the best for both of you! Its really nobodies business. Not even sure why other moms disclose their early births/inductions on here. Should be doctor/patient only ♀

I have an iugr baby! Had my induction at 37 weeks. She's now 2 weeks old. Good luck to you & your little on induction day! 💕

Hey as long as there’s an medical reason like in your case there is nothing wrong with that! Your doing what your DOCTOR said is best. Your not trying to self induce at 37 weeks because your uncomfortable.

@jellybeans33, yeah I don’t agree with just having a baby to be having one because of being uncomfortable, I’ve been that this whole time & god I wish I could do the natural thing but it’s too risky 😩.

@tianadavis216, unfortunately not all doctors make the best decisions. Blind faith in doctors is dangerous. Myself and two of my children wouldn’t be here if I believed in certain doctors 😔

My friend had to have her daughter a few weeks early because her placenta stopped working. It’s necessary for them to take the baby out when that’s happening. It’s scary to think your child isn’t getting what they need from u inside. There’s nothing wrong with having your child a little early. In fact it would be wrong to keep them in!’ Good luck I hope everything works out well for u two

I don’t blame ya mamma! Happy you two are making it that far! I’m a little ticked off at my Doctors. I’m pretty sure I had IUGR as well because my little girl was only 3.12 at birth and my stomach stopped growing at 29 weeks. They just said it was because boyfriend and I are tiny... I know they don’t know exact weight due to ultrasounds but they also said she was 4.5 at 34 weeks and I had her at 36.6.. no where near 4.5 pounds. I was also really swollen, like my face was always swollen and my hands hurt at night because of it. I wish I would have went and gotten a second opinion.

@myriahboyett710, awe I remember seeing your post when you had baby & that’s exactly what I was thinking at 36 weeks at 3 pounds your baby was definitely IUGR and I was SO glad for you and your family everything was okay with her and she got here alright 🙏🏽. She is gorgeous, my first IUGR baby was born at 3.11 and I remember how tiny she was but such a fighter😏 she’s 5 and a half now still a little skinny mini.

@alyboo102293 yeah, I don't think she'll be big or tall. Boyfriend is 5'6 and I'm 5 foot. Thank you so much we are super grateful she didn't have any issues other than weight. Can't wait to see your little man!
