Foetal weight at Week 17

May I know what is the normal baby weight at week 17? My gynae seems concern that my baby is only 500g.

Hi... Your baby at 17 weeks is 5.1 in (13 cm), weighs about 4.9 oz (140 g), and he/she is responsive to sounds. The subcutaneous fat layer crucial for thermoregulation is forming. The placenta is growing with the fetus.
