87th Percentile
Went into triage today with reduced movements and i had a growth scan. Currently 28w3d and they said my daughter is measuring on the 87th percentile and I've been advised to eat a healthy diet.. I already do this. But my bump measures 27cm so I feel like it's small for where I am at but I'm just a bit confused and unsure what to make of being told I will probably have a big baby.. im feeling rather conflicted :(
They told me my baby was over the 100th percentile which caused me a lot of worry and stress throughout my pregnancy! I was preparing for a sumo baby! He ended up coming early at 35 weeks 3 days and was a healthy 5lb 15 so I really had nothing to worry about. Try not to worry too much, it doesn’t help and your baby is going to grow at the rate that they need to grow at ❤️
