is my fetus to small for the timing age?

[Pink9219]

I'm 25 weeks today (6months & a half) & yesterday I had an ultrasound. I'm having a girl. She weights 1 pounds. ( I think 1.7). She's 19 cm which is like 7 inches. I red that a fetus at this age should be 13 inches & my baby girl is just 7 inches. I asked the tech & she said "The baby is petite" but I don't understand what she means by that. Im just focus on my baby being tiny. My husband & I are average size. I'm not petite at all. Is she gonna stay small? Has any of you mommys been threw this with your baby being "petite" too small for the age.? Can this have to do with my eating? I eat twice a day & I don't like veggies. I eat normal.. I would like to read some of yall similar experiences on this & some advice. I'm also a first time mother so I need help. My tech didn't give me much info & I'm worried my baby won't grow. Also, how can I make her grow & Get fatter?

Your doc will go over with you but I think you should eat more. Have you gained a proper weight since the beginning of pregnancy?

Thanks. & No she didn't show me anything. She said not to worry but i still do since shes really tiny. An average baby would be 13 inches and shes just 7 inches.

After your ultra sound did your dr sit down with you and show you a chart of your babies development compared to a healthy babies development?
If they are not worried or concerned, i wouldn't stress out about it.
You should be eating 6 small meals a day though, accompanied with a lot of fluids such as milk, juice & water to ensure proper nutrition.
Your baby needs those vitamins & minerals.
If you don't eat those, is there something you can drink to get those servings of vegetables & fruit?
Like a smoothie, or salad.
You could also try v8 fusion. Its a fruit and veggie drink but all you can taste is the fruit
