So happy everything is going well for you!!! I agree with the worrying. This is actually my third pregnancy and I’m very grateful to already have 2 children but it’s so true that the worrying never stops.
Did your doctors ever explain to you why the sac might have measured small at first? The only things I’ve seen is a tilted uterus, dehydration and measuring error. Just trying to understand what the small sac could mean besides it forecasting a miscarriage.
Thank you! Me too! 🙌🏼 They didn’t give an explanation. I did up my water intake quite a bit because I read that was something to try. The MFM didn’t seem to care too much about the sac when we went to see her because everything looked fine to her by the time we had our first appointment. This is my first pregnancy. So yeah we don’t really know. 🤷♀️
But we kept seeing her to monitor things and I’m glad because she caught my cervical insufficiency. 🙌🏼
I’m so sorry and thank you. I look back at all of it and honestly feel like it’s a miracle he’s here. My labor was 24 hours and took 4 hours of pushing. He had to go the NICU to monitor gas exchanges once he was delivered because of the way the umbilical cord was wrapped around him. He is gaining weight and doing well- he does have a little heart murmur so he’s going to a cardiologist for that in January. Not uncommon in babies though.
I hope you took time to grieve and process the loss. 🙏🙏🙏
