low birthweight

[littleperson96]

I had a third ultrasound because i measure a little small, when i got there they told me my son was 4ibs 10oz, hes looking healthy and i was 4ibs and 9oz when i was born, and i turned out fine, im just worried, me my mom and my grandma are all tiny, but we all smoked during our pregnancies..

This would be why they tell you not to smoke.

And my bad as well thought you said your smoking so big misunderstanding.

Bloody he'll your tiny I weight 8lb but I'm 5ft5 so I suppose that's normal for me and no my baby is quite small at 38 weeks he's only 6 so still considered small. It's just when you said that much sounded a bit scary at that weight they are considered pre terms. Tbh it's my personal opinion about smoking but it's up to you personally so I'm not judging. But if your saying you were fine and it's a family thing I wouldn't worry then. Good luck. Sorry if I sounded a bit harsh we mummies suppose to support each other.

My mom smoked with me and I'm fine. Don't worry yourself to death over it. I'm glad I don't have that habit, but once it's started it is hard to knock. I weighed 6lb 8oz. Your baby probably will weigh close to what you weighed! My girl is measuring small like I did and I didn't smoke at all.

Why did you smoke if you knew there could be consequences?
