Thanks for all the support ladies,I was really worrying especially if I delivery before 40 weeks because I want her to be perfectly healthy. They say she is doing great she if just small but now I really don't want to rush things
Some people just have small babies but in th last week or 2 baby gains a certain amount everyday :) my .gf just had a 5 pound baby & she is perfectly healthy honestly even if u went into labour earlier then 40w I think u will b fine as all of her vital organs lungs etc would b formed now :) Xo
My son 6 years ago was 8 pound 7 ounces so I'm probably looking at another big baby so scared LOL
My mum was born 3lb... she survived and that was 52 years ago lol... i have a different worry to you.. i have 2 weeks left and my bub weighs almost 8lb... so im havin another big baby... :/ ouch..
I have to go in Friday for an ultrasound bc they're concerned that my son is measuring small..I'm praying he's okay. My husband was only 5lbs4oz when he was born, and all the babies in his family are small so I'm thinking that's just what it is. I've lost 25lbs and they're worried about that, but I had to drastically change my diet when I got pregnant bc I have gallstones, but hopefully everything is okay with your baby && the rest of your pregnancy :)
Don't panic, my son was measuring small from 33 weeks onwards. I had growth scans right up to 38 weeks then they induced me. He was only 4lb 14oz! Apparently my placenta was starting to break down, and he wasn't getting enough nutrients. But he was all healthy, just small, and soon turned into a little chubba bubba once the breastfeeding started! I am 29 weeks now, and am getting a growth scan at 30 weeks to check his size, just because of what happened with my last son. But i'm not going to be too worried about it now, as long as the actual health of the baby is all good.
My first born was 6lb 8oz and i rekon this one will be a simalar size. We all must just carry well its less of a belly to loose after we have had them and stretch marks.
A week b4 i had last ultra sound to c if my bby was ok n they said he weight 5/4 but wen he was born he was actually 9pounds. i had noo belly!
With your first did you baby come out small?
I have a simalar problem im 36weeks measuring 31 but babys measuring fine to and im not to worried as i was the same with m first pregnancy
Ooh really! Thank you my midwife wants to see me twice a week now because of her weight gain
my niece was born perfectly healthy at 5lbs 6oz. she was just small.
during the last few weeks of pregnancy you typically gain a pound a week. so hopefully you gain another pound just in case(:
