3rd Trimester

growth scan vent

I've measured small all pregnancy so my MW ordered a second growth scan (5th ultrasound total) for this morning.  How pointless! There is so little accuracy at this stage that they can't definitively tell you anything apparently.  Baby measured 7 lbs 12 oz, but there's a range of +/-1.5 lbs. His head is LOW.  Cervix was not detectable (not surprising because I was 80% effaced and 3 cm dilated last Wed).  Fluid levels appeared ok, but with little accuracy.  Placenta still looked good.  I guess no alarming news is good, but I feel like every measurement was a total guess!  I gotta say, I love my health insurance because I would have been pretty ticked if I had to pay to find out nothing with an accuracy level of none.  

::sigh:: I'm just tired of waiting for this baby to debut.  At least he appears really healthy...you know...as far as they can inaccurately tell.
