He measures 20 weeks in weight. He should only be about 6 or 7 ounces according to my doctor. He is now measuring 19 weeks 1 day but they are keeping my normal due date.

Is your due date accurate? Fetal weight at 20 weeks is universally 12oz unless a serious chromosomal issue exists. Percentiles are not important until late 2nd trimester. Honestly, 10oz seems OK for 18 weeks. Top priority in obstetrics is accurately dating a pregnancy. Management is very difficult for the OB if dating is inaccurate.
