IUGR??From: anonymous@obgyn.netTue, 31 Jul 2001 12:28:44 -0500 (CDT)
IUGR?? Hi, I did not have any problems during my pregnancy. Labor was long. I went into labor Friday evening and my son was born Sunday morning. I did not progress from 1cm. Sunday morning I was 2 cm. My doctor broke my water. After that i dialated to about 4.5 cms. I had just gotten my epidural when the baby's heart beat went low(50s). My ob did an emergency c-section because of this. The baby was smaller than what we doctors had told earlier, but I believe that is common( we had been told he would be 7.5-8lbs. He was 6lbs, 19.5" tall). He had a lot of dry skin, and flabby skin although he was born 2 days before the due date. The ped. nurse said it looked like he had lost some weight in the womb or the due date was wrong. We spoke to my OBGYn about this and he said the ultrasound indicated that the due date was correct, so it might have been IUGR. I have been feeling very guilty about this since he lost weight in the womb, and want to find out if we can confirm this was indded what happened. Also, if it did should we worry about any long term effects. Our baby is 3 months old now. At 2 month check up he weighed 10.5 lbs, 23.25 inches tall and head circumfrance was 15.25(this was 13.25 when the pediatric nurse measured him at 2 weeks). Thanks..
