    I'm so sorry to hear this. Could you have muddled your dates up? Have they booked you in for another scan? xx

    Hi Kylie, when I was pregnant 2.5 years ago I went for my 12 week scan and was told baby was measuring barely 10 weeks. Was upset/worried it wasn't growing properly but was told I had most likely got my dates wrong and to go back for a repeat scan in 2 weeks time. I did this and then the baby was measuring spot on 12 weeks, at 20 weeks it was again dead on size wise and I went on to deliver a perfectly healthy baby boy weighing just under 7pounds at full term. He is now almost 2.



    Hopefully you have got your dates wrong like I did. I have always had longer cycles (anything 34-42 days.) how long are your average cycles? This time my doctor has based my due date on my long cycles rather than the avg 28 day one which I feel happier with. I really hope it works out for you, are you having another scan?
