Hello everyone. I recently found out that my baby’s abdomen is too small and they believe it is due to placenta insufficiency. I have to do NST monitoring and ultrasounds weekly. Anyone went through this? If so what was your outcome and was baby okay? I’m so stressed and can’t think of why this may be happening. Baby size is average, so I’m not understanding how the stomach is below 10%

Placental control during pregnancy
The placenta is an essential organ for the healthy growth of your baby and the exchange of nutrients. It is therefore closely monitored throughout pregnancy.
- The purpose of this monitoring is to detect possible complications.
- Complications can include placental abruption, placenta previa (or low-lying placenta), and, more rarely, placental hematoma.
- If your pregnancy is near term and your baby is not born yet, the placenta will be monitored more closely as it ages and may no longer be able to properly nourish your baby.
- With regular monitoring of the placenta, these complications are detected early enough to be managed.

Having an anterior placenta is scaring me because everyone asking if I’m feeling movement and no I’m not #anterior-placenta
Amie

Found out my baby boy is measuring in the third percentile 😥 they’re gonna be monitoring his growth to figure out if it’s something wrong with my cord or placenta. If there is something wrong, he could have to come out early and grow on the outside😖 I’m terrified but trying to stay positive. 29 weeks and 3 days. I think my bump looks a bit bigger in that picture because I’m sitting.

Currently at labor and delivery checking on baby girl because I felt like her movement had decreased. They are monitoring her right now, but told me where I have an anterior placenta as she gets bigger it would actually be harder to feel movements and that could be what it is.

Yes they said she is perfectly fine it’s just the placenta that’s blocking most of her movement !!😊

Currently 25 weeks and had a ultrasound yesterday and was told my placenta is failing and not giving my baby the proper nutrients and oxygen he needs to grow and is currently sizing at 21 weeks and will have to be placed under fetal monitoring at the hospital until birth. This is honestly scary and confusing any one have advice?

Guess I have placenta previa. Sonogram tech said my placenta could still move up though by the end of the pregnancy.

Prayers for you that it does! I had a partial placenta previa in my 4th pregnancy that was diagnoised around 17-18 week but between week 20 -24 it had moved up and had stayed in the anterior position
