my u/s update

Well not great news I was hoping for.  The baby's growth has slowed.  He went from 30% 4 weeks ago to 13% today.  They are concerned that the placenta is possibly not getting enough blood flow and oxygen to the baby.  Though today the blood flow looked good.  So we have to go back in 4 weeks for another u/s in hopes that with the special super high protein diet and the no more exercising (darn lol) and I'm supposed to lay low as much as possible will help my little boy grow!  after the next u/s the plan of action starting with nst's once a week and u/s every 2 weeks to monitor growth.  Worst case scenerio is that they starting getting the baby prepped for a possible early arrival.  So any good thoughts my way would be greatly appreciated!!! TIA!

  • That must be frustrating! I hope that at your next appointment, things are looking more positive. I hope if things go more smoothly from now on,  the baby will get to stay in there as long as possible!

    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...

  • Keeping you and your little one in my thoughts and prayers, hopefully things improve at your next ultrasound.
  • Sorry you're having to go through this.  I hope LO has a growth spurt before the next ultrasound.  My T&P's are with you!
