Hi
This pregnancy has been nothing but tough! I've been in the hospital already and I have a super sensitive cervix that bleeds all the time... Now baby is measuring SGA. So I have to have my 4th ultrasound today. My uterus only grew one centimeter in 4 weeks. BUT, I have no other warning factors, so that is good.
The dr said she could be low on amniotic fluid, which would hinder her growth. I just hope it is another crazy thing about my crazy body, and that the baby is fine. If she is not fine, I think they'd have to take her early...I hope that doesn't have to happen. But I am pretty close to the end...so maybe it wouldn't be that bad.

I'll try to update after the u/s, but we have a lot of things to do this afternoon. It might not be until this evening. Cross your fingers for healthy baby ultrasound!

I think that is what he wants to rule out with the ultrasound... but I'm not totally sure.

Amee, you have been through a lot! I hope today you receive good news and that little girl is still baking safely.

Good luck at your u/s. Hopefully everything is okay in there!

Sorry it has taken so long to update...busy weekend. Well, the Dr hasn't read the report yet, BUT, the u/s tech and the radiologist both said: She is just small! They showed us her measurements compared to my 29 wk u/s on the average scale, and she has always been on the smaller side of average. And my amniotic fluid is OK, too. Just waiting for the Dr to say the same thing, but I am pretty sure it will all be ok. She is 4lbs 12 oz...and all the books say she should be around 5 lbs now. I have no problem with her being a small baby

YAYAY!! I am glad everything is OK with her! Defintely nothing wrong with a small but healty baby!

[banksamee]

Got the official OK from the Dr. She is just small, but growing at a normal pace! he said my uterus must just be growing more inward than outward. (which I think would explain why I am so uncomfortable all the time and why she hits my organs so much when she moves!)

Hopefully this will be the last time this little girls scares us!
