My first son was 2.44kg at when I put to birth at week 37 and I'm with my second now which the Dr.  Scan and told me that she weigh 2.20kg at my 37 weeks. He only told me to eat much of carbohydrates food for the remaining weeks for the baby to put on weight. Not to worry all is well..

Nothing to worry about, it doesn't mean your baby isn't healthy. My first baby measured small too and she weighed 7lbs and 13 oz. Dr said this baby is measuring even smaller. Which honestly I don't even mind because it's easier for us to push out baby and chances of tearing are also less.
