Small baby? 😢😰

Question

At my 34w 4D appointment ultrasound sound showed baby girl only weighing at 4pounds 3 ounces and just at 16 inches long. She’s in the %17 according to doctor... 
Threw out this whole pregnant it’s been really rough. Been so sick and lost close to 40 pounds. Would this be because of how sick I’ve been? 😰 I pray she’ll be okay 😭
Anyone else baby measuring smaller than others?

Answer

My baby was 30th percentile at 33 weeks 3 days and was measured again at 35 weeks 3 days and she is now at the 39th percentile! My doctor said as long as she’s not measuring smaller each time that it’s a good thing. My baby gained over a pound in 2 weeks. I wouldn’t worry too much about the size. I also struggle with low amniotic fluid which is why I had so many growth scans.

Answer

I wouldn't be too concerned over it if the doctor isn't. My friend just had her baby last night and she was told that her baby weighed 5 lbs a week ago and he came out to be 7 lbs 10 oz at 21 inches long.

Answer

Thank you guys!!! Y’all comments make me feel a lot better. I was really worried and cried to my mom a lot! I am currently 36 week as of tomorrow and haven’t gained anymore weight. Have an ultrasound on Tuesday Hopefully baby girl is still gaining!

Answer

My baby was born on the 5th percentile and is doing great now and growing very quickly.  Try not to stress about it xx
