I am at 34 weeks, baby having IUGR, measuring about 2 weeks behind, gaining only 100 gms in 2 weeks and low amniotic fluid, only bare minimum of 5 cm.
Wish to ask if any mummies experienced this or know of anything can kindly share with me:
- in general, would it be better to take baby out now to grow bigger outside the womb than remain restricted inside?
- can baby tolerate such long periods of growth restriction? Its already been 2 weeks baby didnt gain much weight. Can baby tolerate further if dont deliver soon?
- can a 34 weeks plus premmie weighing about 1.6 to 1.8 kg baby thrive?
I know these are qns to ask the doc whom i am not seeing till this afternoon hence like to do some research and think thru first.
