3rd Trimester

XP: Drop from 50th to 29th percentile?

Hey ladies. Anyone have this happen? I have been getting growth scans since week 28 because I have high blood pressure issues. BP has been under control but in the past 2 weeks it has been creeping up - not dangerously so and no protein has been found in urine, but it is creeping up a bit. For my first 2 growth scans I was 50th percentile then today all of a sudden I am measuring in the 29th.

I know the 29th percentile is just fine, it's the drop that concerned me. The doctor wanted to put me on the monitor for a while to make sure baby's movements and HB were fine and everything checked out okay. He said it's within their "margin of error" but I am afraid he just said that to make me feel better. I am just concerned my baby isn't growing like it was. I am monitoring BP from home and go in again next week for a regular check and in 2 weeks I get another growth scan.

Anyone go through something similar?
