Hi Ladies, I know this will probably be different for everyone but interested to hear what your plan of action is if you have one.
I had a growth scan last Wednesday and the babies tummy was measuring above the 95th centile head and thigh were above average. I have been referred for another scan on the 3rd July when I will be 37+5.
I saw the midwife today (not my normal midwife) and I asked her what would happen if the baby was still measuring big, she just said nothing and that there would just be a quicker get out clause so they would go for vaginal birth but if the baby appeared to be getting stressed or stuck they wouldn't keep trying they would take me for a section.
I was under the impression from the consultant that if the baby was still big they would induce me early to give me the best chance of a vaginal birth.
Just wondering what your midwife/ consultant has said?
