33 weeks 4 days today !! Had my appointment today for biophysical profile, and growth scan. At 28 weeks, she was in the 31 percentile, weighing 2 pounds and 1 ounce. Now she is in the 17th percentile, weighing 3 pounds and 1 ounce. I don't understand what I'm doing so wrong. 😢 my doctor will make me deliver if it drops to 10 or less, as she would be better out than in. Im 33 weeks 4 days, but my uterus is only measuring 31 weeks. Her heart rate was 132 today, her reflexes were great, she's a mover, her breathing movements were good, she had a few in a 30 minute period, they like to see atleast one in that timeframe. Also, my fluid level was at a 17, 10 to 25 is normal and she is head down in the birthing position. When we first started, she wasn't moving at all because she is stubborn like that, I swear she knows when she is getting an ultrasound and absolutely hates it. So the tech gave me two soft peppermints to get her to move , sure enough about 15 minutes later she was all over the place, first things first, her hands playing with her feet in front of her face just like last time. Lol she is something else, she must've liked the taste of the peppermint because not only did it get her to moving, but we could see her doing sucking motions with her mouth and sticking her tongue out. I love my silly girl, I actually have an ultrasound picture of that moment that I'm gonna share! My appointments are weekly now and im being monitored closely. I'm not sure what she scored on her BPP today, because my doctor was tied up with a delivery, so we will go over everything next Thursday following next weeks ultrasound as well as this one. I've been so down all day today.. sigh...
Rest up mama! Lol i slept so much with my son no idea why i would litterly just fall asleep lol or be crying! Haha
That sounds like me except for lately the insomnia has started to creep in, and I never get that well rested feeling. Most of the time I feel like I'm just laying there with my eyes closed.
Aww thinking of u girl! It is nothing u did like all the ladies said! A friend just went through this her baby was measuring small and they kept saying they were going to induce her. She ended up going in and the baby was just shy of 6 lbs they thought she was going to be alot smaller! Your q small tall girl! And have a long torso! It will all work out! 💜💜💜
Wow, thanks for your response, I'm sure babygirl will be just fine.. just tiny. How are ya ?
@angikay thats totally ok keeps them smaller longer! Lol its just so nerve racking hearing them say that stuff! Im ok! Just been crazy busy! Lol
@proudmama2411 yes it is, it's stressful when you hear it from the doctor ya know. And I've been so lazy and exhausted lately. Ughhhh
I'm continuing to pray that she keeps growing and can stay in there until due date! She's so cute!! The last shot of her makes my heart melt 😍
Not doing anything wrong!! My baby girl was measuring really small I think 7th percentile at 35 weeks so I was being monitored twice a week and then induced at 38+5 and she was born 5 pound 6 and absolutely perfect 😍 try to relax and enjoy the last few weeks of your pregnancy ❤️
That gives me hope! Thanks alot! 7th percentile is really low. But I'm glad you got to keep her in as far as you did with it being that low!
Awww! Precious baby! Sounds to me you’re going through what I did with my baby being small. But Haisleigh came out at only 3.12 and Scarlette is already almost there! If anything you’ll just be meeting little one a little sooner. 🤞 she stays in but at least she’s happy and healthy other than that! It’s almost time eeeek
@angikay, don’t worry, you and little one will be fine!
You’re doing nothing wrong! Those measurements are more than likely not correct! I was induced at 39+4 because they thought my girl was going to be 9+ pounds and she was 6#14! Relax and enjoy the last few weeks 😊
You're fine mama! I didn't understand how I could not gain any weight and was so scared my baby was going to be too small. I blamed myself for my fluids being too high as well. Well he came out 7 lbs 9.5 oz at 38.4 weeks! Just know you're doing what you're supposed to. ❤
You aren't doing anything wrong! My theory is petite mommy petite baby. Some just grow on their own terms, right? Hugs! Hang in there mommy!
Don’t be down your baby is heathy all the tests are showing it. With my first and second my uterus stopped measuring at 34 weeks but baby kept growing. There’s more room in there then anyone knows or thinks. Dr appt are so stressful sometimes and I know how you feel but she is perfect. Just lay back and feel her move that use to be what kept me sane in all the not knowing kind of situations. You’re doing amazing ❤️
@angikay, I know the feeling haha baby will continue to make room as needed! They have their jobs and we have ours and as far as I’m concerned you’re doing everything the best you know how and that is all that matters
Your not doing anything wrong babe!!! Sometimes there’s no explanation for why babes don’t catch up on growth. Hang in there when are they checking growth next?
Thanks hun ! They are giving me BPPs every week until I deliver now, and I didn't get to speak to my doctor after the BPP because he was downstairs doing a delivery, but i did ask the tech and she told.me when babies are small like scarlette is, the doctor will request another one to follow up and keep checking on her. So maybe in 2 weeks? I'll know when I go back thursday, I'm sure he will let me know then.
Hang in there mama. Everything will end up just the way it’s supposed to. She will be perfect!
Awe Angi don't be down love. She is a beautiful little girl already. She is probably just going to be a tiny little thing! Hugs mama💖
@nbentley88 lol, I seen your recent posts, you've definitely dropped hun !
@angikay thank you and I sure hope so and it's just not the position he was in!
@nbentley88 yeah they change positions so much which makes it hard to tell, but fingers crossed its not just that !!
Definitely nothing you’re doing wrong. Look at those little lips 😍 she’s perfect!! Everything’s gonna be ok mama ❤️
We’re here for you!!
Thank you! And I know y'all always are ! She has big lips lol she gets them from her daddy.
She’s a beauty angi !! Hang in there mama it will be okay I’ll say a prayer for you both ! 🙏❤️❤️
This girl on my fb is 8 weeks pregnant with her first child and she said she felt the baby 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️people these days 😂😂😂
My doctor said he would induce my labor at 38 weeks, if my baby girl still had growth issues and if the percentile dropped to 10 or less. Last thursday, it was 10 percentile, and he said if she didn't come on her own by 38 weeks, he would induce labor at that time. I'm 36 weeks 1 day today, he said my cervix was super thin, and 1cm dilated. Is there a possibility this can change... that my doctor will let her just come on her own? I don't want to be induced, i would much rather her come on her ...
I just absolutely love some women on here! Some woman wants to write on another women's post telling her she shouldn't be having sex at all in the beginning of pregnancy. I didn't know she was her doctor. Then she wants to tell me that the first trimester is only 1-9 weeks pregnant. And she lost her baby at 4 weeks pregnant due to sex. Like sweetie that's your period starting!

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know
the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
I'm 22 weeks today and it felt like my baby rotated positions today - granted they move all over the place at this stage, but I wonder if he will be head down next Tuesday at 23 week ultrasound appointment...
Awwlol
