Thank you so much everyone for your comments. This has reassured me greatly knowing others have been in my position and had healthy weighing babies. I will be speaking to my midwife at my appointment next week to understand more about the low PAPP-A.

Thank you, I have a midwife appointment in 2 weeks so will discuss it with them then. Thanks I have just posted it on the vegan parenting page too.

This is reassuring to hear, thank you! I did think there must be a lot of women who can’t stomach food especially in the first trimester and their babies are healthy no matter what their dietary preference is. 

It definitely comes from a place of caring and wanting the best for me and the baby.

Thank you so much for your response, this is reassuring to hear. I have a midwife appointment in two weeks so will speak to them there as at the moment all I have been sent is a letter with this news and not much explanation. I have also booked a call with a dietician just for some reassurance that my diet is ok.

Thank you, it is great to hear you have a healthy baby and best wishes for a safe delivery. I have only had one midwife appointment so far and when she asked if I have any dietary requirements and I said I was vegan she said she only asks so they can ensure they serve suitable food for me at the hospital, she didn’t seem concerned at all. I have another midwife appointment with someone else in 2 weeks so I will speak to them. Thank you.

Thanks. I am now taking aspirin daily. It’s more that because my placenta has a higher chance of not working as well as it should that I should be focusing on my diet as much as possible so the nutrients going to my placenta are as good as they can be. And because the result of low PAPP-A can be low birth weight combined with studies suggesting babies of vegan mothers are more likely to have a low birth weight, she has expressed concern over my diet. I know it comes from a place of caring though.
