Small baby / early delivery

How many weeks are you

My one year old dropped to the bottom 4% do not let them stress you out please ! I was so worried about it my daughter was born 5 pounds 9oz and I was induced at 38 weeks which nearly caused me to lose my daughter if you are on the smaller side too that plays a huge factor I’m 4’11 and was 95 pounds pre pregnancy so please message me if you are nervous about anything

I’m 32 weeks and 1 day right now

I’m 5’2 and I was 204 lbs when I first got pregnant. I lost 11-12 lbs in the first trimester. I have trouble eating enough food so I have barely gotten back to 200 lbs right now and I’m 32 weeks. My mom also had IUGR with me and was induced @ 36 weeks. My doctor said my baby’s percentages were in the 1%. They want me to gain 5 lbs. they want to keep him in as long as possible but if he stays too small he’s more at risk to stay inside and poses a risk of dying.

my doctor told me to drink protein shakes everyday and that helped

Small babies can still be healthy. Up your protein just in case. And remember to not push yourself no lifting over 50lbs or over exertion as that can also bring on labor!
