The pedia told me that the results shown were baby's heart is enlarged but pedia wasn't that worried as he said baby just turned 15mos and that the rad-techs who did my baby might have mistakenly shot at wrong timing as baby was crying uncontrollably when she ...

Today I went and it’s measuring 29, but she did say that he’s moved position and his head is now engaged. Which would most likely explain the reduction, but they stil...

Bump Measuring Small

Hi everyone, Had my 25 week appointment today and midwife said my bump is measuring small and I need to go for another scan at some point this week, I am extremely worried now. She did say as I am petite this could be the reason why I don’t have a very big bump. Has anyone experienced this and baby was fine ?
