I'm 40 weeks and baby is measuring 1 month behind. This is my second baby and my first was also a small baby at birth, 6lbs 1oz. I'm not overweight for either pregnancy, I'm petite and eat plenty of healthy foods. Some women just make small babies :)
My baby has gone up down from 3rd to 10th centiles since i started having serial scans at 28 weeks. I'm now 36+3 and being induced at 37 due to her having some issues with raised PI on her doppler. None of my other babies have been small, they ranged from 30th to 100th centiles. I have my last doppler/AFL/CTG tomorrow and hopefully if alls well, ill be back on Wednesday to deliver. I do drink caffeine but i drank it in my other pregnancies too. I eat very well, lots of veg, steak, eggs, healthy fats and nuts, seeds, some fruit etc. This little one is just smaller than her siblings.
I am 37 weeks with my 3rd baby, both my boys measured small at 36weeks and I was just told my daughter is also measuring small. But fundal height has been good every week until 36 week, my boys were delivered naturally at 38 weeks and so far all on my stats are on trend with my reproductive history. I just have small babies and I was a small baby myself. My midwives are happy and things have been breezy, but my doctor is getting herself worked up. She is the type who wants to induce if she gets the chance but then you have to wait an exorbitant amount of time to see her for scheduled appointments. I have no concerns other than having her interfere with my birth when she has no need to. I have a team of midwives on my side though and as I've seen them more over the past 9 months I have a good bond with them.
My baby is under 10 percentile in abdominal circumference and my doctor said this has nothing to do with how much or what I’ve been eating... most likely issues with placenta that’s not as efficient . So honestly it’s out of your control. Don’t stress out that you did this to your baby.... 🙄 it’s not related to food . Unless you are highly malnourished like Starved for weeks then maybe. But even if you didn’t have a big appetite throughout your pregnancy as long as you ate everyday even small meals it has nothing to do with iugr. I’ve seen multiple doctors and midwifes they all told me the same. It just happens. Can be placenta can be genetics etc. Nothing to do with eating
Im 34 weeks and my baby is under 3rd percentile. The doctor asked me to count 10 mouvements a day if lower then I'll have to call him. He asked for a 4D scan nect week to see the heart activity if she can stay another week inside the womb and repeat this process untill we reach the 37th week. My doc said that there's an issue with the placenta. Before my pregnancy and because of quarantine i had a very low level of vitamin D.
I know how hard it can be. Baby turned out perfectly healthy! I was induced but was already 40 weeks 5 days. Boy 7 lbs!! And now he is over 99 percentile in all he is super tall and healthy. I will send positive waves to you love
@@alexineparker4297 thank you for your words. I am trying to be strong, but I am very scared. I just want the best for my baby and hearing those things are devastating me. This is my first baby and we were waiting for having a baby for a long time.
we are 33 weeks atm, and our baby is below the 1st percentile, my wife does drink only 1 coffee per day and somedays none, but she has alot of fruit and veggies, and eats very healthy.
At my 32 week ultrasound I was told my baby is a month behind and it’s literally driving me crazy. I’m going to try everything you mentioned on here.. Update my baby is now 1 month and 11 days old and she’s almost 7 pounds😃
Hi Samantha D , I was told the same today 😭 and I don't know what to do.. tell me if your baby increased in wight ? Any thing changed ? Your advice for me 😭😭💔
@@rahaf4004 i ended up having my baby at 36 weeks she was 4 pounds and 5oz and is now 3 weeks old she lost a few ozs the first few days which is normal and more than a week ago we went for her appointment she’s 4 pounds and 8oz so she went over her birth weight which is a good sign. So I know your baby will be just fine plus ultrasounds are not 100% accurate when it comes to the size of the baby. Best of lucks you you 💕
I am 28 weeks now.The baby only weights 998g.The OB told me the baby is too small. I don’t think I have enough carbohydrates intake to control my sugar level.From this week, I try to eat more food with carb to see whether it helps.Finger crossed for the next week ultrasound.May God bless us all to deliver a healthy baby😊
I’m at 7 weeks and my doc said the fetus is growing much slower than gestational age and does not look promising. Hoping with your video, it will be in good use and bring positive news on the baby growth soon.
So thankful for this video, my baby is measuring in th 20th percentile, however, I have been drinking lots of coffe and haven't eaten as much veggies as I should and use to. So, I'll be changing that starting now, leaving the coffee is going to be hard, but I'm determined.
Interesting learning about Vitamin B and D deficiency. Im in my 34th week and being monitored weekly since 31 weeks because my baby is below 10th percentile. 🥺
Hi sis! Do you mind telling me what helped you? Please I’m so worried, I’m currently 24 weeks pregnant and they told me the same thing today! Please let me know anything that’s helpful
@@zuniahmdy4893 hello Zuni! My baby just turned 4mos and is now on the 85th percentile (7.5kg). A week before he was born, my OB said he’d weigh around 6lbs and that is enough for me. His actual birthweight came out to be 6.8lbs at 38weeks and 2days. Don’t worry too much. Thats my takeaway from this experience. Ultrasounds are rough estimates Afterall. I think what helped was focusing my diet on protein. I was also adviced to drink Igco skimmed milk powder at 36weeks. My baby is fully breastfed and is doing well, thank God. ☺️
I’m 28 weeks baby is measuring almost 2 weeks smaller ... my vitamin D was just found to be low ... so hopefully taking supplements will help along with eating more fruits and vegetables. Thanks for the video. ❤️
I just hand an ultrasound, my gestacional sac is smaller than it should be for the baby. Gestacional sac matches 5.5 weeks and the baby matches 6.4 weeks
Im 38 weeks and my baby have a normal head size but a smal arm and leg size they are 34 and 36 . I am so worried . Will my baby grow uo normally after birth ?
In the growth scan at 31.1 weeks of gestational age, in the result ait is written that the fetal age is 29.4 weeks and AC is 5th centile likely S/o SGA. Fetal weight is 1.401 kg. What does all the outcomes indicate? Although the doppler scan showed normal reports.
went in for a dr appt at 34weeks was told I was measuring in af 32weeks. Baby was measuring in the 15th percentile at 35weeks 1day 😭 and usually my family produces large babies 9lbs+.. Im trying to eat a lot in high hopes my baby is gonna grow larger in size 🙃 but he seems highly active and strong so we’ll see..
I am 35 weeks. I have been sent to a tertiary hospital to see a specialist in maternal fetal medicine. I attended that appt Thursday. Little girl is on the 10th %ile for weight and her ac is on the 4th %ile. I also have GDM. I don’t smoke or drink alcohol or coffee. It’s so hard not to worry
It is hard not to worry, but do the best you can. In the interim keep busy by preparing for your baby to arrive. Get as much sleep as possible. Get out into nature. Prepare nutritious meals. 💜💜
Alhamdullilah I was blessed with a baby girl who born healthy . She's now 18 months old. She's is fit Maa shaa Allah Alhamdullilah ❤ thanks for your concern guys
My pregnancy weeks are 9 weeks 2 days but baby is measuring 6 weeks.doc gave me some prenatal vitamins and asked me to wait for 2 weeks more.. I'm sooo worried
I had my 28 weeks scan yesterday. I was told my baby is small, her weight is not even a kg yet. I’m so worried I couldn’t sleep. I really don’t know what to do. This is my second baby, my son was 4 and half kg when he was born.
Take a deep breath. I know it sounds trite, but worrying won’t help and will only make things worse. It might be a good time to book an appointment to see a counselor and a prenatal Dietitian. See here for booking details: www.melaniemcgrice.com.au/booknow/
Ya but what do I do when I don’t feel hungry and I’m always stressed and when I can eat I eat a lot I think but sometimes it’s hard to eat I’m basically 7 months
Does walking Or excerise put baby who is small of gestation by 3 percentile cause any risk ? I'm 35 weeks pregnant but my baby AC and FL fall below 3%tile
How did it go. My wife is in the same boat 38w the Ac Is below the 3 percentile they want to induce but we don't want too . Please let us know how u went
Im 8 weeks pregnant i have a small. gestational sac.But My Dr.give me a pill to take for 2 weeks but now the spotting confinued until now .I had 1 more week left to take pill bfore my 2nd follow up chck up for another ultrasound to chck the baby .Im a bit worry.🤔
Hi there, I am really sorry to hear about the spotting. I recommend touching base with your fertility specialist, to share you concerns and discuss the best path forward. Take care x
I have gestational diabetes and I’m 35 weeks and 1day today.My baby’s weight is 4lb11oz .Doctor said she is little small.How can I increase her weight?
@@hiwotedewaza5413 Don’t worry Please.I have a healthy and beautiful baby girl now.She had 6lb6 oz when born. Doctor induced me at 38weeks. Your baby’s weight will increase rapidly just eat healthy .Best wishes to you :)
Hello did you have your baby with a c- section or natural. I am very worried because my doctor told me that the baby is small and her weight is 4 lb 8 oz. I cry a lot yesterday because she told me that the baby will come early and she will need to be in NICU. I know that every case is different, but can you share your experience with me please. Thank you.
At 28 weeks I was told my baby was measuring 8 percentile in AC , rest was growing normal, scheduled for Doppler this Saturday.. let’s just hope everything goes well.. Due in November 🐣
At 37 weeks and 4 days my baby was measuring in the 6th percentile. At 36 she was measuring around 33 and I’m going to get induced in four days close to 39 weeks wish me luck 💖
I’m having this problem rn the ultrasound said s my baby is measuring in the 15th percentile I will be 38 weeks tomorrow and worrying because my baby only weighs 5 pounds 14 oz 😔
I’m 25 weeks pregnant today I went to my appointment today they told me she’s small!!!! but her heart rate is good!!!!! And stuff she’s just very small :( I’ve been worrying about this I was born 2months early and was only 4lbs 1oz so should I be worried they said she had a growth restriction and they are sending me to a high risk doctor on the 13th as well as my glucose test that day as well………prayers that babygirl is healthy and just small :) Babygirl is measuring in the 7th percentile and she should be at a 10 ! Her kicks and movements are very strong 💪
@@NourishwithMelanie my baby growth age us varies for 4weeks doctors said its very difficult baby might have problem in birth....I'm depressed what is next sud I do
I had my 28 week scan and measurements today and all is good but was told baby’s stomach circumference is small and my pre pregnancy weight is 118 pounds so I am naturally a petite person and was advised to eat 6 small meals
@Freya Reiki Goddess hi i am currently in same situation and worried. If you don't mind can you tell me how did your pregnancy go and what did you do to change tye situation. Please and TIA
@@drbhargavikandukuri3595 Hello, I am sharing my birth experience: I had the most beautiful birth ever! It wasn’t at the birthing center as I wanted because by the time my midwife sent me back home I was in so much pain and dilating very fast that had to go to hospital instead. Needless to say, I wrote my birth plan on what I wanted on a napkin in the car while my hubby drove and checked in without an OB! It was the smartest choice ever! The nurses and the doctor who delivered my baby that night followed not only my birth plan but told me every step of the way how close I was to delivering without any medical intervention! I actually ended up ditching my OB last minute who told me that I had to take the baby out earlier due to small measurements and the fact she didn’t want me going past 40 weeks. Well guess what?! My baby arrived last due date. I went to 41 weeks and baby was perfectly fine and healthy at 6 pounds. Ladies educate yourself, don’t get bullied about these OB’s who want you to do it on “their time”. All the scans that they did are not 💯 accurate and this was the case with mine and I’m sure many others out there. If the baby has oxygen to the placenta and nutrients are given from placenta to baby and blood flow is good then there is no need to take baby out earlier!
My baby born on 14th may and he was 3 kg healthy baby...my doctor said 0.5 kg variation in weight is normal as machine can't weigh the exact weight of baby
Thank god.. i am also in same situation 34 and 4 days but measuring 32 weeks.. HC and bpd is less..baby weight is 1.9kg normal. Taking healthy food now But i am worrying abt size of my baby.
hi I was told by my obstetrician that my baby is small by her gestational age. but at the same my dietitian is controlling my food intake due to gdm. it's like I'm walking between a thin line. If I eat a lot, then my sugar will go up. But if I control my diet, my baby will suffer being too small. I'm already taking vitamin d supplement but it seems like nothing is working for the benefit of my baby. I'm 33 weeks pregnant and my baby weight is only 1300 grams.
Hi there, unfortunately I am unable to provide personalised nutrition advice over the web. I recommend booking in an appointment with your Doctor to discuss the best steps forward. x
If born at full term, small for gestational age babies grow to be healthy children. However, there may be factors to consider that may impact your child's growth and development. Usually, your doctor will have this conversation with you. I hope this answered your question!
Hi, I am 12 weeks an diagnosed with empty gestational sac with no heart beat. Gestational sac diameter is 42mm.I don't have bleeding or cramps however, Doctor is suggesting me to do an induced miscarriage. I don't know whether to do it or keep waiting
I also have same problem I m 2 month pregnant but my baby growth is 1-1/2 month..doctor saying that till now no heart beat so you should not extend your pregnancy...but my mother says that it's ohk to have slow growth as ur body is week...
Same problem here with my spouse too. Femur is 2 - 2.5 weeks behind ( 5th percentile ) than other aspects. My wife is 32 weeks 2 days pregnant when the test was done. Btw how is your baby now ? Hope everything is alright.
I had my dating scan yesterday.As per my last period I am 6weeks and 3 days pregnant. But my scan result shows 5 weeks and 4 days. Sonographer said nothing to worry, it's because of my irregular period (usually I have irregular periods because of my PCOS and thyroid ) My gp's reaction was bit worrying 😪. I am so tensed. Bub's heart beat rate is 106.
Hi there. I had my baby GS 21.5mm and GA is 6w and no heartbeat. From my LMP I am supposed to be 9w. Is it bad? I have no symptom of any miscarriages. My health is normal but I am a coffee drinker. Could you give me advise?
We have the same problem..mine according to my LMP im 9weeks pregnant but my result it seems that my sac is 7weeks and the fetus is only 6weeks and still no heartbeat..i need to repeat my ultrasound nextweek and i feel nervous..
Jinkz Lopez That confuses me too. No bleeding , no back pain , nothing ... Just the GA is small as expected. On 22nd June will be my next Ultrasound. I am worried too. My first baby :( . But I keep praying for both of us. We will have a healthy pregnancy with next ultrasound. Don’t lose hope, mama :)
@@chorlinin8659 i feel backpain,but so confuse because its not accurate on my ultrasound..the doctor diagnose was threatened abortion but hoping and praying that on june 17 hopefully there will be heartbeat..i am afraid because i already felt it in my last pregnancy..i am always talking to my tummy that plz baby have an heartbeat na.'
Jinkz Lopez Dont worry. Everything will be fine . I am on the same stage of the threaten of miscarriage. I had a bit light tan discharge and I went to Echo , it said the baby didn’t grow . Still the same 5 w. Very bad sign. Now my last Echo is on 20th. God blesses us 🙏🏻
I am 10 weeks 2days pregnant but my baby is 7weeks 6 days on an ultrasound with no cardiac activity..my dr told me to re scan after a week..what should I do?
What are your thoughts on taking aspirin during pregnancy for helping the baby to be average weight at birth. I’m pregnant with my 4th and my midwife wants me to take aspirin because all three of my previous pregnancies my baby would be smaller.
What did you do afterwards? I have hyperemesis gravidarum so my baby was always on the small side (30th percentile) but he was maintaining that growth. Then they found me GDM at 29 weeks and he dropped to 20th percentile by week 32 so I'm worried and I don't know what to do 😞
Today is my 30th week of pregnancy and the doctor told me that my fetal abdominal circumference is small compared to the head and legs. Is this cause any problem to my baby
I found out on Friday during my growth scan that my baby's abdomen was small, last month, he was at 20%, and now it dropped to 12th %.... I'll be 31 weeks this upcoming Tuesday. When I heard the news, I started tearing up thinking the worse. I have GD and have been taking insulin at nights for about 3 weeks. I wish the doctors would tell me how to make it better, but nothing... I'm trying to increase my food intake and perhaps shorten my walking to 30 mins daily... any updates on yours?
Im almost 36 weeks and i found out that my baby is still small 1st Percintile my ob told me this earlier so i was so scared pls enlighten me what to do??
@@AbdusSalam-tf8si Hi. Same for me.. today did my 1st scan.. it's actually 10 weeks for me.. but baby growth s 7 week 2 days. Will it be an issue?? How r u now?
Hello mam last week I had my scan in which AC and HC was measuring 32 week at 33 weeks and now I'm in 34 weeks now but still the AC and HC measures 32 weeks...pls tell me if there is something to worry...pls reply
No, there's no immediate need to worry! Babies grow at different rates and some are smaller than average. Measurements are not always accurate either! If there is concern your obstetrician will discuss this with you :)
I’m supposed to be 10 weeks 2 days but I’m only measuring at 7 weeks 3 days the baby if growing but really slowly they said they don’t see a heartbeat but I feel like it’s not true 😩
Hello Melanie, I had my 7 week ultrasound and blood check up today. Hormones level is good but doctor said It looks like baby is 2 days smaller. Then I checked CRL is 0.68 cm. Is that CRL normal? Is there anything to worry about? What should I do for normal growth of the baby? Please reply
I had my 31 weeks scan today & baby is measuring 2 weeks behind. Ultrasound during my 28 weeks detected hypoechogenic inserts of microcalcinates. I am very worried what all this means. Please advise
Depending on your lifestyle and diet, it can lead to developmental delays and a potential higher risk of developing certain conditions that can impact your baby's health.
Mem I am from India. ..I have some query about IUGR and IUD. .I wanted to share my reports..how is it possible to dicuss my problem ...Please provide your mail id, if possible. .
Is 3 days difference between ultrasound age and gestational age normal. I am 11 weeks pregnant and baby is 10 weeks 3 days in measurement Earlier it was 2 days difference. Currently taking prenatal vitamins and vitamin D as well. Anything to worry about?
If its 1 week difference between ultrasound age and lmp date I am 9 weeks 1 day pregnant and baby is 8 weeks 1 day and am taking fruits and veggies and nuts. Is anything to worry about mam.
I am 31 weeks and got an ultrasound today and was told that my baby’s arms and legs are below normal measurements and I need to be sent to a specialist..does anyone know the reason or if it’s normal or not?
Nourish with Melanie but should I worry a lot is it serious I’m at 31 weeks they said his arms and legs are measuring 1 percentile and should be at least 10 so is he gonna be born un normal?
Lindley Duncan no not yet but I have been doing research and asking people I had a lot that say they were in the same situation and baby turns out to be fine but idk I’m due for another ultrasound on 02/27 to see if he’s grown or not..what did they tell you is it same thing arma and legs?
I’m 28 weeks and my babies arms leg and head are measuring at 28cm but her belly is 2weeks behind they are worried some of her organs didn’t form I’m nervous and can’t sleep I don’t see a specialist until this Thursday should I be worried or is she just a small baby
I viewed my ultrasound (now at 34 wks) and saw that "fetal long bone lagging". Honestly Im scared to death and pray she doesnt have to deal with dwarfism or any defects.
I am keeping you in my thoughts! Every child is a blessing and I'm sure you will show your baby unconditional love which is a great foundation for an amazing life
@@stephaniewilliams0 so by the grace of god she healthy and happy and growing at a perfect rate. She was born shortly after my due date but her limbs and head are growing at the right perfect rate
Hiii.. today is my six week start. Dr. Take my first ultrasound scan today itself.. but the result shows 5weeks3day and have no fetalpole.. she told me to come aftee 2weeks for scaning.. is any chance to positive result.. i m so worried.. pls reply me
I can imagine this would be troubling news to hear. I hope you are in capable and safe hands to ensure your baby lives a long, happy and healthy life :)
I'm 36 week pregnancy now, but my gynae fixed for me to be induced in week 38 as she said my baby is too small. And today I lost around 400 g within 2 weeks. I am consuming high fibre as i'm having very bad hemorrhoid. Every day is just disaster and I can't stop using high fibre or else I will be bleeding due to hard stool. Is consuming high fibre drink caused my baby to lost nutrition that lead to his small size?
Hi Cika! There are many factors that can contribute to your baby being small for gestational age. Usually high fibre drinks are safe to use during pregnancy (it is important to drink plenty of water to replace the fluid lost through bowel movements). So please do not be hard on yourself! I wish you and your baby health and happiness!
@@NourishwithMelanie thank you for your reply! I've been so sad and demotivated that perhaps it is my fault in the first place. Will be more positive until delivery. Thank you! Your video is very helpful! ❤

Obviously I can’t comment without knowing all the details, but from what you’ve told me it doesn’t sound serious at all. Try not to worry and look after yourselves xx
folic acid, and fruits!! you can buy milkshake powders that say on the front *folic acid and added vitamins* these are great, and eggs are great for unborn weight gain :) if you &/or partner are short, dont worry too much :)
@@kaursingh7521 Unfortunately I do not have your background history to make an appropriate statement on this, for my area is diet and nutrition related
I would suggest asking your doctor for a suitable dosage as every woman is slightly different. However the recommended dosage is 400micrograms of folic acid per day as a baseline. You may also find this video helpful - ua-cam.com/video/aHijZehzsyM/v-deo.html
Hello, my doctor says my baby is weak i am in 37 weak but in ultrasound there is 35 weaks only my doctor says there is Chance of c section what are the possibilities according to you
I am 34weeks and baby measured 31 weeks.. but weight is 1.9kg normal.Doctor told me to take healthy diet. I am worring abt it... will it affect my baby in any other way after born?
Worrying doesn't help. But, I agree with your doctor, do your best to follow a healthy diet for the rest of your pregnancy. It might be a good idea to see a prenatal dietitian. See www.nutritionplus.com.au.

Thanks for your enquiry. Worry never helps anything, so don’t worry, but it is worth focusing on your dietary intake until he achieves a healthier weight. I’m afraid that I can’t provide personalized advice on UA-cam. You can book a consultation at www.melaniemcgrice.com.au/booknow/ but I will say that it’s important that you are eating well. Have you downloaded my meal plan? That would be a good place to start. 🙂
I was 13 weeks when I got my first ultrasound my doctor said it measured 13 weeks but she told me my baby is small... should I be worried?.... maybe I need to take vitamins ? Trying to keep positive thoughts

I'm 40 weeks and baby is measuring 1 month behind. This is my second baby and my first was also a small baby at birth, 6lbs 1oz. I'm not overweight for either pregnancy, I'm petite and eat plenty of healthy foods. Some women just make small babies :)
Thank you for sharing 😊
Does it mean small babies remain small through out their life?
My baby has gone up down from 3rd to 10th centiles since i started having serial scans at 28 weeks. I'm now 36+3 and being induced at 37 due to her having some issues with raised PI on her doppler. None of my other babies have been small, they ranged from 30th to 100th centiles. I have my last doppler/AFL/CTG tomorrow and hopefully if alls well, ill be back on Wednesday to deliver.
I do drink caffeine but i drank it in my other pregnancies too. I eat very well, lots of veg, steak, eggs, healthy fats and nuts, seeds, some fruit etc. This little one is just smaller than her siblings.
I am 37 weeks with my 3rd baby, both my boys measured small at 36weeks and I was just told my daughter is also measuring small. But fundal height has been good every week until 36 week, my boys were delivered naturally at 38 weeks and so far all on my stats are on trend with my reproductive history. I just have small babies and I was a small baby myself. My midwives are happy and things have been breezy, but my doctor is getting herself worked up. She is the type who wants to induce if she gets the chance but then you have to wait an exorbitant amount of time to see her for scheduled appointments.
I have no concerns other than having her interfere with my birth when she has no need to. I have a team of midwives on my side though and as I've seen them more over the past 9 months I have a good bond with them.

Im 34 weeks and my baby is under 3rd percentile. The doctor asked me to count 10 mouvements a day if lower then I'll have to call him. He asked for a 4D scan nect week to see the heart activity if she can stay another week inside the womb and repeat this process untill we reach the 37th week. My doc said that there's an issue with the placenta. Before my pregnancy and because of quarantine i had a very low level of vitamin D.
I’m in the same boat, baby is way to small and doctors want to induce me now at just 37 weeks 😭
I hope everything went well for both of you!
Hello how are you? Can you share how was your experience. I am facing a similar situation right now, and I am worry. I cry everyday.

At my 32 week ultrasound I was told my baby is a month behind and it’s literally driving me crazy. I’m going to try everything you mentioned on here..
Update my baby is now 1 month and 11 days old and she’s almost 7 pounds😃
I'm glad you found this video! All the best for the remainder of your pregnancy :)
Hi Samantha D , I was told the same today 😭 and I don't know what to do.. tell me if your baby increased in wight ? Any thing changed ? Your advice for me 😭😭💔
They told me your baby is a month smaller than the normal age 💔💔💔
@@rahaf4004 i ended up having my baby at 36 weeks she was 4 pounds and 5oz and is now 3 weeks old she lost a few ozs the first few days which is normal and more than a week ago we went for her appointment she’s 4 pounds and 8oz so she went over her birth weight which is a good sign. So I know your baby will be just fine plus ultrasounds are not 100% accurate when it comes to the size of the baby. Best of lucks you you 💕
@@samantha3493 Happy to hear your baby is growing well :)
I am 28 weeks now.The baby only weights 998g.The OB told me the baby is too small. I don’t think I have enough carbohydrates intake to control my sugar level.From this week, I try to eat more food with carb to see whether it helps.Finger crossed for the next week ultrasound.May God bless us all to deliver a healthy baby😊
Congratulations on your pregnancy, and I'm glad the video could help!
How’s your baby? Ours is at 31st week but only has 28 weeks growth.
I’m at 7 weeks and my doc said the fetus is growing much slower than gestational age and does not look promising.
Hoping with your video, it will be in good use and bring positive news on the baby growth soon.
I am sending you so much love and strength
Hello my Dear, what happened with you and your baby? ❤
So thankful for this video, my baby is measuring in th 20th percentile, however, I have been drinking lots of coffe and haven't eaten as much veggies as I should and use to. So, I'll be changing that starting now, leaving the coffee is going to be hard, but I'm determined.
Glad to hear Ley!
How your baby now sis
Interesting learning about Vitamin B and D deficiency. Im in my 34th week and being monitored weekly since 31 weeks because my baby is below 10th percentile. 🥺
Hi sis! Do you mind telling me what helped you? Please I’m so worried, I’m currently 24 weeks pregnant and they told me the same thing today! Please let me know anything that’s helpful
Im 28weeks my baby is at 9th percentile too
@@zuniahmdy4893 hello Zuni! My baby just turned 4mos and is now on the 85th percentile (7.5kg). A week before he was born, my OB said he’d weigh around 6lbs and that is enough for me. His actual birthweight came out to be 6.8lbs at 38weeks and 2days. Don’t worry too much. Thats my takeaway from this experience. Ultrasounds are rough estimates Afterall. I think what helped was focusing my diet on protein. I was also adviced to drink Igco skimmed milk powder at 36weeks. My baby is fully breastfed and is doing well, thank God. ☺️
@@pearlsimon9233 thank you ☺️ I passed the rough stage, thank god😭

My pleasure Aisha. 😊
Did you carry to full term?
Hey, did you carry full term? And what was your baby's weight at birth?
Did you gave birth to normal weight ?
Did you delivered normal baby please reply
I just hand an ultrasound, my gestacional sac is smaller than it should be for the baby. Gestacional sac matches 5.5 weeks and the baby matches 6.4 weeks
Im 38 weeks and my baby have a normal head size but a smal arm and leg size they are 34 and 36 . I am so worried . Will my baby grow uo normally after birth ?
Now normal aah?
In the growth scan at 31.1 weeks of gestational age, in the result ait is written that the fetal age is 29.4 weeks and AC is 5th centile likely S/o SGA. Fetal weight is 1.401 kg. What does all the outcomes indicate? Although the doppler scan showed normal reports.
I would suggest speaking to your healthcare professional regarding personal results such as these.
went in for a dr appt at 34weeks was told I was measuring in af 32weeks. Baby was measuring in the 15th percentile at 35weeks 1day 😭 and usually my family produces large babies 9lbs+.. Im trying to eat a lot in high hopes my baby is gonna grow larger in size 🙃 but he seems highly active and strong so we’ll see..
Sounds like you have a healthy and strong baby growing! Hopefully the video gave you some helpful information :)
Im exactly the same! Im still pregnant so what happened to your baby? Please
I’m gone to try the fruit diet I’m 6 mnths pregnant I’m due 9/5/23 and my baby is 1IB 15oz
I am 35 weeks. I have been sent to a tertiary hospital to see a specialist in maternal fetal medicine. I attended that appt Thursday. Little girl is on the 10th %ile for weight and her ac is on the 4th %ile. I also have GDM. I don’t smoke or drink alcohol or coffee. It’s so hard not to worry
It is hard not to worry, but do the best you can. In the interim keep busy by preparing for your baby to arrive. Get as much sleep as possible. Get out into nature. Prepare nutritious meals. 💜💜

I had my 28 weeks scan yesterday. I was told my baby is small, her weight is not even a kg yet. I’m so worried I couldn’t sleep. I really don’t know what to do.

@@drbhargavikandukuri3595 Hello, I am sharing my birth experience: I had the most beautiful birth ever! It wasn’t at the birthing center as I wanted because by the time my midwife sent me back home I was in so much pain and dilating very fast that had to go to hospital instead. Needless to say, I wrote my birth plan on what I wanted on a napkin in the car while my hubby drove and checked in without an OB! It was the smartest choice ever! The nurses and the doctor who delivered my baby that night followed not only my birth plan but told me every step of the way how close I was to delivering without any medical intervention! I actually ended up ditching my OB last minute who told me that I had to take the baby out earlier due to small measurements and the fact she didn’t want me going past 40 weeks. Well guess what?! My baby arrived last due date. I went to 41 weeks and baby was perfectly fine and healthy at 6 pounds. Ladies educate yourself, don’t get bullied about these OB’s who want you to do it on “their time”. All the scans that they did are not 💯 accurate and this was the case with mine and I’m sure many others out there. If the baby has oxygen to the placenta and nutrients are given from placenta to baby and blood flow is good then there is no need to take baby out earlier!
As per lmp my baby is 38 weeks and as per ultrasound baby is 35 weeks..should i worry about it??
Worrying won't help, but it's worth implementing the strategies that I discuss in the video

What are your thoughts on taking aspirin during pregnancy for helping the baby to be average weight at birth. I’m pregnant with my 4th and my midwife wants me to take aspirin because all three of my previous pregnancies my baby would be smaller.
There are precautions to take when taking aspirin as high dosages can be harmful. If you are concerned, please raise this with your midwife.
My doctor recommend me aspirin 81 mg from day 1 of last LMP
How ur babies now.. R they physically small or by age too??
I’m booking a consultation with a prenatal Dietitian
I was put of restricted diet for gdm but when I followed it they said he's slowing down on growth and his head is 2 percentile
It can be a tricky balance with GDM. You'll need to get some personalised advice to assist you with this. Best wishes xx
What did you do afterwards? I have hyperemesis gravidarum so my baby was always on the small side (30th percentile) but he was maintaining that growth. Then they found me GDM at 29 weeks and he dropped to 20th percentile by week 32 so I'm worried and I don't know what to do 😞
Today is my 30th week of pregnancy and the doctor told me that my fetal abdominal circumference is small compared to the head and legs. Is this cause any problem to my baby
I found out on Friday during my growth scan that my baby's abdomen was small, last month, he was at 20%, and now it dropped to 12th %.... I'll be 31 weeks this upcoming Tuesday. When I heard the news, I started tearing up thinking the worse. I have GD and have been taking insulin at nights for about 3 weeks. I wish the doctors would tell me how to make it better, but nothing... I'm trying to increase my food intake and perhaps shorten my walking to 30 mins daily... any updates on yours?
Im almost 36 weeks and i found out that my baby is still small 1st Percintile my ob told me this earlier so i was so scared pls enlighten me what to do??

Is 28% at 24weeks bad?
There's many different factors to consider so I can't say whether it's bad or good in your case. You'll need to ask your doctor.
Is 3 days difference between ultrasound age and gestational age normal.
I am 11 weeks pregnant and baby is 10 weeks 3 days in measurement
Earlier it was 2 days difference.
Currently taking prenatal vitamins and vitamin D as well.
Anything to worry about?
Nothing to worry about :)
If its 1 week difference between ultrasound age and lmp date I am 9 weeks 1 day pregnant and baby is 8 weeks 1 day and am taking fruits and veggies and nuts.
Is anything to worry about mam.

It could be many things....that’s why it’s important to see the specialist 😘
Have you heard anymore since you posted? We are in the same situation.
Nourish with Melanie but should I worry a lot is it serious I’m at 31 weeks they said his arms and legs are measuring 1 percentile and should be at least 10 so is he gonna be born un normal?
Lindley Duncan no not yet but I have been doing research and asking people I had a lot that say they were in the same situation and baby turns out to be fine but idk I’m due for another ultrasound on 02/27 to see if he’s grown or not..what did they tell you is it same thing arma and legs?
I’m 28 weeks and my babies arms leg and head are measuring at 28cm but her belly is 2weeks behind they are worried some of her organs didn’t form I’m nervous and can’t sleep I don’t see a specialist until this Thursday should I be worried or is she just a small baby
I viewed my ultrasound (now at 34 wks) and saw that "fetal long bone lagging". Honestly Im scared to death and pray she doesnt have to deal with dwarfism or any defects.
I am keeping you in my thoughts! Every child is a blessing and I'm sure you will show your baby unconditional love which is a great foundation for an amazing life
@@NourishwithMelanie thank you so much for the encouraging message
@@mscharita what ended up happening??

Sending my prayers!
I'm 36 week pregnancy now, but my gynae fixed for me to be induced in week 38 as she said my baby is too small. And today I lost around 400 g within 2 weeks. I am consuming high fibre as i'm having very bad hemorrhoid. Every day is just disaster and I can't stop using high fibre or else I will be bleeding due to hard stool. Is consuming high fibre drink caused my baby to lost nutrition that lead to his small size?
Hi Cika! There are many factors that can contribute to your baby being small for gestational age. Usually high fibre drinks are safe to use during pregnancy (it is important to drink plenty of water to replace the fluid lost through bowel movements). So please do not be hard on yourself! I wish you and your baby health and happiness!
@@NourishwithMelanie thank you for your reply! I've been so sad and demotivated that perhaps it is my fault in the first place. Will be more positive until delivery. Thank you! Your video is very helpful! ❤
@@cikarosli5691 My absolute pleasure! I'm keeping you in my thoughts!

My baby is 38 weeks as per the Doctor but today's Ultrasound report says that the Gestational age is 34 weeks and 5 days. Please help me out to understand the same. Is there some serious issue? We will meet the Doctor after 2 days as she is not in town. Me & my wife is really worried.
Obviously I can’t comment without knowing all the details, but from what you’ve told me it doesn’t sound serious at all. Try not to worry and look after yourselves xx

Should I worry???
I’m measuring small at 37 weeks and baby is only 3 pounds.😭 baby due in 3 weeks can my baby gain 2 more pound in just 3 weeks?
folic acid, and fruits!! you can buy milkshake powders that say on the front *folic acid and added vitamins* these are great, and eggs are great for unborn weight gain :) if you &/or partner are short, dont worry too much :)
How’s your baby? I have the same issue, I am 37 weeks. They will induce my labour next week. I am a bit worried
@@carlarabechi2203 how did everything go?
I had my 20 week 2D scan today in scan my baby Abodman is small im worried plzz tell me what to do now?
Hi Kaur, that would be something you would have to speak to your doctor about.
@@NourishwithMelanie she said another scan will happen in 6-8 weeks plzz tell me this problem is major or minor
@@kaursingh7521 Unfortunately I do not have your background history to make an appropriate statement on this, for my area is diet and nutrition related
@@NourishwithMelanie ok thnku for giving ur precious time
@@kaursingh7521 All the best! ❤
I'm 7week pregnant but doctor said i have fibroid and my baby is too small to see in scan but he recommended folic Acid , pls what should do thanks
I would suggest asking your doctor for a suitable dosage as every woman is slightly different. However the recommended dosage is 400micrograms of folic acid per day as a baseline. You may also find this video helpful - ua-cam.com/video/aHijZehzsyM/v-deo.html
Am 32weeks and my baby weight low 2108g
Hello, my doctor says my baby is weak i am in 37 weak but in ultrasound there is 35 weaks only my doctor says there is Chance of c section what are the possibilities according to you
This type of advice would be best to come from your doctor or obstetrician
i wonder if acupuncture can help??? anybody tried that? maybe getting blood to flow to the placenta/baby can be benficial??? idk.
I am 34weeks and baby measured 31 weeks.. but weight is 1.9kg normal.Doctor told me to take healthy diet. I am worring abt it... will it affect my baby in any other way after born?
Worrying doesn't help. But, I agree with your doctor, do your best to follow a healthy diet for the rest of your pregnancy. It might be a good idea to see a prenatal dietitian. See www.nutritionplus.com.au.

I’m so sorry to hear about your loss
my ob-gyne said my baby is malnourished and behind his age. i'm 27 weeks and his bpl is 28 weeks but his femur and ac measures 25 weeks! should i be worried? she did not advised me to eat more rather gave me vitamins for the baby's weight. i hope you respond. thank u.
Thanks for your enquiry. Worry never helps anything, so don’t worry, but it is worth focusing on your dietary intake until he achieves a healthier weight. I’m afraid that I can’t provide personalized advice on UA-cam. You can book a consultation at www.melaniemcgrice.com.au/booknow/ but I will say that it’s important that you are eating well. Have you downloaded my meal plan? That would be a good place to start. 🙂
How is baby now? Pls rplu
I was 13 weeks when I got my first ultrasound my doctor said it measured 13 weeks but she told me my baby is small... should I be worried?.... maybe I need to take vitamins ? Trying to keep positive thoughts
Have you watched the video?
