Patient's question:
There are eleven days left until the due date, and I had an ultrasound. The ultrasound showed: The fetus is in head position. BPD: 98mm. Fetal heartbeat: 144. Spine is continuous. Femur length: 7.0. Placenta is in anterior position II. Amniotic fluid depth: 36mm.What help do you need: Can I have a normal delivery?
Doctor's answer:
From your careful examination results, the fetus's biparietal diameter is larger than expected for gestational week 40, which may pose some difficulties during a vaginal delivery. If the fetus is relatively large in size, a cesarean section may be necessary. The baby has now reached full development, and if you plan for a vaginal delivery, you should use labor-inducing medication under the guidance of a doctor in the near future to facilitate the baby's delivery. Whether it's a vaginal delivery or a cesarean section, it's important to follow the doctor's advice to ensure a smoother birth for the child.
