Pls can some1 help havnt said anything to my husband about my worries as the dates are perfect and i dont want him worring like i am if it comes out at the birth that its not his he will be heart broken . Im going out of my mind As long as you know for sure you Didn't miss any of your pills you have nothing to worry about!!!
They're good for checking any developmental problems but as far as dating goes every baby grows at a slightly different rate.
A 5lb baby that grows into a 4 foot 8 person isn't going to be the same size as a 10lb baby that ends up growing to 6 foot 5.
Its so common to lose between a few days to a few weeks at your dating scan.
No pregnancy is textbook so changes that happen to your body and symptoms you get don't happen at a certain time.
We're meant to be, you know, you're meant to, dating scan between 10 and 12 weeks. And our midwife spoke to someone in the ultrasonography department, and they said that they wanted us, because of our past history, because we had an anencephaly baby, you wanted to scan us at 10 weeks just to, so that it gave you more time to prepare to then do another scan at 16 weeks, which is the original plan'. ' I said, 'All I want you to do is to tell me if my baby is healthy and normal'.
And she said, 'Oh, well, I can't make out the baby. And she then turned on me and said, 'I can't do that'. And she said, 'I can't tell you if your baby has anencephaly'.
we're certain that this isn't possible but as its our first baby we wondered if anything similar had happened to anyone else, or if this is quite common.they've booked us in for another scan in 3 weeks but im convinced they're wrong, is it possible to just have a small baby??
katy I went into my dating scan thinking I was 12 weeks and 3 days but I was only 11 weeks and 3 days.
Again, at 12 weeks when l had my NT scan their size difference made my Dr think that Twin1 was downs (she wasn't) as she was by now approx 1cm smaller than her twin sister. Twin 2 was slightly longer and even now, she is a little taller her than her sis.
Hope this post helps you and l think it just goes to prove that even from conception we are all individuals.
